The Adventures of Stinky Sweet:

Sometimes stinky. Sometimes sweet. But it's our life - and it is always good.

it's building...

The excitement I mean...my girls are coming this weekend and I could not be happier.
Although I have a thousand things to do before they come, and I am getting a little stressed out, I am not going to let it get to me. Chad says I am not allowed to have parties any more because I get so stressed out that it be perfect that I don't really have any fun. So, I say NO to stress. And YES to fun! The roofers/construction workers are supposed to finish fixing the closets and roof some time tomorrow (please Lord...they NEED to finish!) so we can stuff everything back in closets and my ladies will have beds to sleep in. I warned them about possible mess but I told my MIL that I must have beds for them to sleep in. I would feel horrible if I invited them to come - with our plenty of spare rooms - and they ended up on the couch!
So, I have a kitchen to clean up, couch cover to wash and reput, desk and table to organize, carpets to vaccum, sheets to change, bathrooms to clean, craft area to clean up (I've been painting!!)...on top of planning stuff for us to do and even more grocery shopping and menu planning for when they are here. Oh dear...
A stray/abandoned dog followed Chad and J home from a walk last night and Megan wants to keep it. We told her that it needs some work before it can even think about coming in the house (I have nightmares about fleas!) and she needs to make sure that it didn't escape either and someone is looking for him. I don't know if it will really work out anyway - Gwendolen doesn't really tolerate other dogs all that well. She has been standing at the garage door barking her head off for about 12 hours now so I am already concerned about the outcome...
