Some Pictures From Saturday and Today

Mel came over with her girls to help me clean out the attic. I hired a sitter to watch all the kids. Josh also got a new bed delivered that day. Here they all are, still in pajamas, watching the bed enter the house.

Josh's new bed with the overflow garbage bag on it

The hallway

Tomorrow is garbage day, so tonight Mel, T and I brought the garbage to the curb. I really need to tip the garbage men!

The kids never get to play in the front yard, and for whatever reason they thought it was great fun. Here they are playing tag.

They say Spring cleaning is cathartic. I guess not the way you thought it would be.

We have a mutual friend and she turned me on to your blog. I've been reading for a little over a month. Your strength is even more unbelievable than your story. Both leave an unmistakable impression.

Anyway, have been feeling guilty about reading "in secret", so I thought I'd identify myself. I really admire the way you've carried on.

Thank you so much. If the mutual friend is who I think it is, then I admire your strength as well. I know it's been a tough few months (or longer?) for you. Hang in there.

The kids are gorgeous!! The tag especially looks like a lot of fun!! Love the new bed, and it must feel like a weight has been lifted to have the attic cleaned out.

Even though it sucked, at least it's done and now you shift another segment into the moving on column.

Yep - you pegged me. Don't feel bad for me, my problems could be surgically removed. And under anesthesia, no less! Yours are a bit tougher to deal with. Admiring from afar.

I didn't have time to comment on yesterday's blog, so I came back to do that today (and I have) and here's all these gorgeous photos.

Love the photo of the front yard - how do you find the time to garden?????

I agree that the front yard is gorgeous! How does Josh like his new bed??

Ali and Erin, I'm picturing my friends that know me in real life snickering at your question.

I don't garden. I pay landscapers! They do such a nice job :O)

I was going to say it's a lovely yard, too. Wow, I can't believe all that garbage, I hope you feel a bit 'cleansed' by going through all that.
