Pretty Great Week

This week ended up being pretty great.  This is despite the fact that I forgot to take my happy pills 2 days in a row resulting in horrible nightmares last night.

Monday I got a massage at the chiropractor and figured out the cause of my back problem. 
Tuesday I got to go to a baseball game during work.
Wednesday we got our escrow check in the mail, FINALLY.  With this we are pretty financially set to pay our 20% down payment and have pretty decent savings still left which is a huge win in my mind.
Thursday I lost 0.6 lbs at Weight Watchers and the boys did not throw a fit at being separated for their music class.  My son won over all the teachers at the music school by serenading the entire waiting room with a pretty excellent rendition of Rainbow Connection, wearing a Kermit shirt and strumming a banjo guitar.  Moments like that make me tear up with pride.

Friday is today and only 2 FREAKING WEEKS until our closing.  Tonight the boys get much needed haircuts and we kick off our fabulous Father's Day Weekend.

On the docket for Father's Day Weekend:  bounce house, pool, jazz fest, and brunch.  Along with gorgeous weather.

Also this week, I got to watch a lot of Storage Wars and Big Bang Theory on the AH's DVR.  The best thing about the DVR at the AH is that one person can watch a taped show downstairs while another person watches a taped show upstairs.  AT&T u-verse is really da bomb.

I forgot to tell you that my dearest friend decided to sell me her freakin' awesome 61in TV to go in the Dream House basement.  It needs a new lamp, which arrived in the mail today.  So this weekend we will attempt to repair it.  I owe her a shout out for storing the TV in her dining room for us for a month until we get to move.  Mr. Molly's Father's Day gift is this $38 lamp that will ultimately give him a great TV for his new man cave.

Let's Try This Again

I erased the last post because it was too depressing.  I know, it's probably a party foul to delete a post you wrote but you know what? it's my blog and I'll delete if I want to.

One part I will repeat is that my 4yr old son has taken to packing up his things and telling me "I'm going to load up your car so we can take this to the new house."  I think he is done with the AH.  However, I'm pretty happy that he's so excited about the new house.  Both boys like to look at the pictures online and talk about their favorite parts.  I keep telling them how much they are going to love the backyard. 

Mr. Molly threatened to take down my countdown on the fridge last night.  I think I convinced him that I am just hormonal and that the countdown is not the cause of my mood swings.  Poor guy.  He makes a good point though, right now we are all healthy and happy and we should enjoy this time together.  I need to figure out how to "be here now."  (Ironic since I'm writing this at work and absolutely not being here now)

I keep expecting to hear from Mortgage Guy (MG) with a list of ridiculous demands.  I know the closing is not for 19 days (in the teens, baby!!) so he probably has more pressing issues.  I'm just wondering when the ball will drop. 

For now I'm going to focus on this weekend - FATHER'S DAY!!  And this guy:

who is amazing.
