Busy, busy

My parents are here and we've been busy! Dad installed the flooring in my new sewing room...and that was the start of a weeklong project! He also floored the hallway, and that led to needing to paint the baseboards before he could install the quarter-round... that led to painting the ceiling (second coat today) and you may as well paint and wallpaper while you're at it, right? Mom started stripping the wallpaper in the hallway, so now, that's all getting done, too. Not what I intended when I asked if he'd install the floor, but it will be so nice to have it all done!
News on the kid front...John has been put on medical hold at DLI, after being told that he'd be assigned to Ft Meade after completing his school at Goodfellow AFB... so they are in limbo for the time being. I was supposed to fly to CA and drive back to VA with Sharyn; that will now depend on wheter they will be reimbursed for mileage, and we don't know when that will be. Steven will be home on leave June 10th; he's already got his ticket! Dennis will be driving with him back to Ft Lewis, WA. Their plan is to see if the car will run non-stop (except to gas up!) all the way there...not my idea of a fun road trip! David is here for the weekend; didn't know he was coming...a nice surprise! He is inprocessing in his new unit, and may be deployed with their next rotation in 10 days to Afghanistan...ugh! And just to keep things going, my nephew, Eric, volunteered for a tour in Iraq (what was he thinking????).
Well, it's tax day, and that's what DH is doing...good thing we get a couple extra days this year...nothing like waiting til the last minute, but it's tradition!!!
Wishing you all Easter blessings!

    Wow aren't you the lucky girl to have so much help and all that work done! Isn't that just the way things usually work...start one project and it leads to 10 more!
