mess

every room has boxes open and half unpacked. That is my downfall, half unpacking. I get thing accomplished but try to do everything at once. I am waiting this morning for my girlfriend to come by with her daughter to do more tossing. I set up three rods in the basement, screwed brackets into a corner wall area after moving some furniture down to make room. Set up a lovely boudoir area.

Last night we didn't get home until after 11:00pm. My sister had a dinner at her house for some friends. I told her we would attend. Trevor wanted a cake for his birthday, white with butter cream icing. The only white cake with butter cream was a giant sheet cake with pink icing. Trevor wasn't happy but he said he could handle pink since that was what he wanted for flavor.

My sister threw together a little gift bag for him. Inside was a bag of sticky eye balls. Trevor stuck them all over his face then offered everyone a stare down contest. He was quite delighted with the gift.

The drive home was long and dark. Tom is working night shift so I have been hunting for our bedroom curtains to help him sleep during the day. They are doing some tests that need to be done during off peak power hours. I took an hour to look for the missing curtains. I didn't find them. Trevor didn't want his special day to end so he wanted to stay up late. l finally went to bed.

At 3:00 am I sat up in bed and yelled for the boys. Trevor mumbled from his room so I knew they had gone to bed at some point. I fell back to sleep knowing everyone was where they should be. Tom was home when I woke in the morning to let the dog out. I miss being able to sleep in without having to get up to let the dog out. Add it to the list of things I still need to figure out.
