Today didn’t feel quite as productive. One of the boys and I were talking and we think it’s because there’s a lot to do in the second bedroom. For the first time since we started I felt overwhelmed. It’s better tonight though. We just kept finding things to throw away or put into piles. One of the beds was taken out and the blankets run through the washer. There are no more beds in there now.

No one wants to read about this, but somehow I still find it interesting. The details of people’s lives are interesting to me. I get tired of listening though like everyone else. Some friends from high school got together on Tuesday and one of the girls talked for nearly a half hour straight. I don’t understand that, like how it doesn’t seem to occur to people to give others a chance to also talk.

We have so many LEGOs here it’s truly insane. There are currently no more surfaces to set them, no more drawers left to store them, no more milk crates left to display them. I told the boys it could maybe be a winter project where they match the book with the set and try to see it “as is”. No guarantees for all the pieces but it might still have the close enough of what you are looking for.
