A BIG week!
It’s Thursday night – my night with Isabella – and she is out and here I am blogging! I’ve actually been with her a lot this week because Jess’ babysitter was out because her Mom had a stroke. I don’t mind – I have the time right now and she is such a good baby.
A little catch-up (not ketchup), I made the decision this week to stay at my house solo when Kelly moves out in August. Financially I can do it alone now, and I love my house, my neighbors, my landlord, etc. It is such a weight lifted off my chest. I am so going crazy now decorating in my head! Kelly’s room will be my office, my room will stay, I bought new stuff for the bathroom, all new kitchen stuff, got new stuff for the basement, I just have to buy my living room set and TV. I know what I want but I’m not getting it until Kelly and Sophie are gone. I also bought a grill and my Mom got me the CUTEST patio set for 2.
You have no idea how excited I am. I have to stop shopping though because I already started storing stuff at my parents house because there’s no room w/all of Kelly’s thing there. Our garage (which the Chevy will eventually go in) is filled with crap that Kelly put in there. As in her “cleaning her room” consisted on just moving it to the garage for the 5 years we’ve lived there.
If you’ve ever lived with someone (I know I’ve talked about our ‘adventures’ on-the-air), I am more than ready to live alone! I am a neat freak – she is not. I like my privacy sometimes – everyone knew where our spare key was…except her, who broke in to the house countless times. We were for sure the odd couple. I know we will get along like peanut butter and jelly when she is living with her boyfriend in their own place.
I should take pics of the place (I think there is a cribs episode somewhere?!), Kelly moved in a month before me and decorated in some country hippie style. I am very modern. It will be interesting to see the changes.
Well Jess is home so I am going to abruptly end.
Tomorrow is the Eve of my first Summerbash on “the other side” – I can’t wait!
Have a good night.

Glad to hear your doing good.
Living by yourself is a big step for you right? Hope you don’t become one of those crazy cat ladies! JJ
Good Luck!
