Things We're Contemplating

    We ignored our growing to do list and took off yesterday for a little R&R.  It was great to enjoy Memorial day as a family. We are so grateful for all of the men and women who have given their lives to allow us the freedom to have such a weekend.  We drove to Wellsboro, PA and enjoyed an overnight stay in a umm... charming 1960's era motel.  I'm pretty sure the bedding and the lady at the front desk were original to the motel.


We went for a couple of bike rides in the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon, ate in a refurbished train car, and watched Kung Fu Panda 2. Unfortunately all good times must come to an end and we are back home working on our revised to do list.  Here is a quick run down:
  1. Find a washer and dryer for my mom's house
  2. Remove the washer that we bought on Craig's List for my mom's house because A) it does not spin and B) it does leak.
  3. Remove the dryer that we just delivered to my mom's house that has an incompatible plug with the outlet in the wall.
  4. Do my mom's laundry since she doesn't have a washer or dryer.
  5. Decide on windows for the house.  Do we get the expensive ones that are nice or do we get the REALLY expensive ones that are REALLY nice?
  6. Get a porta potty for the men doing construction.
  7. Get electric service
  8. Get gas service
  9. Get an address so the electric and gas people know where to go.
  10. Pray that we get our permit this week.  ( I should know by tomorrow).
  11. Finish planting my plants and pray they do not die on my watch.
This is by no means an exhaustive list, but it is an exaustING one. Hopefully my next pics will be of large equipment moving even larger amounts of dirt on our property!  What's on your to do list this week?
