the eye-sore is gone...I am so Lucky!

I love it when I get my way!!! Who wouldn't right? Well, today the eye-sore is finally gone from the driveway! I have been waiting a year and a half to get rid of this, being known as the people with the large pile of wood in the driveway. I couldn't be more thrilled that is is finally gone. So thrilled I had to take a picture!!

This is sort of how it looked before, just last fall, only it was 3 times as long and 3 rows deep. Of course it was convenient, but ugly. And I am all about making things look nice!

The shop is coming along great! I can finally say it is done, but truly it will never be as I will be adding new things and changing them often. It is what I do best. I am a little less stressed than a week ago and things finally seem to be coming along smoothly. Here are a few pics of the inside that I took early today, but did add a hutch and a few more racks after I took the pics.

Today I took B to the dentist. He will be 9 next month and is cavity free. I wish I had been so lucky as a child and the kid rarely remembers to brush. I feel so blessed that he is so lucky! If he could share a little of that with the rest of us. In fact of all the cavities I have, 3/4 of them were probably before the age of 9. Crazy.

Not much else is happening. Nate delivered his papers today. I am glad he had such a nice day to do them. And his grades are looking pretty good this quarter. Baseball will be starting soon and they are both participating this year. It will be a hectic summer and I will be extending my hours during the summer since I won't have to worry about homework, eating early, and all the good things that come with being a mom. I actually prefer the school year as I need the routine as much as they do, but we always make it work and this year will be no different.
