Not much newsy news around here, I guess that is a good thing though! I have some awesome changes coming my way at work in the not too distant future, but I can't really spill the beans about them just yet. Suffice it to say, I may need to get a passport :)
Brian is gearing up to move into town at the end of the month, Kayla is counting the days. It will be nice to have my sewing room back and have him close, so I get the best of both that way! Kayla is liking her summer job of babysitting and the kids like her so that is always a good thing. Becky needs to look for a different job because her boss is interesting to say the least, but jobs are hard to come by. Dan got the corn and beans in the ground and is looking to cut the rye, busy time of year for him.
We are going to do some "remodeling" to the house, nothing exciting though. Just shingling the garage and putting siding on the east side of the house. Also putting in new windows on that side since that is the thing to do when you put on siding. Putting some ceiling tile in the entryway and bathroom hallway, of course the stuff that I like costs and arm and a leg so we have to go with plain stuff :( Also wanting to put new flooring in the bathroom/hallway/office/entryway but just looking at that for now. I would love to put new flooring in the kitchen too, but for once having a big kitchen is a bad thing!
So that is the news at the Josephson house, nothing exciting at all. But, mundane isn't always bad either, keeps life easy :)

If someone tells you you get to do something then they should hold up their end of the bargain, not make a change at the last minute. I don't care if their witch spouse wants something different, if you already made the promise then you should have enough backbone to stand up and say no, this is what I already promised so this is the way it is going to be. But apparently that is not how some people operate. I am a big girl, I can deal with disappointment, but that doesn't mean it won't piss me off. I make the arrangements, procure the merchandise and then at the last minute am told the witch doesn't want me to participate in the fun. You know, karma can be just as much of a witch as you.
No matter what language you want to put it in, I have a lot of shoes. Thirty four pairs to be exact :) Beside our main door into the house is a basket where we put our shoes, and today it was overflowing so I decided to sort it out and take the less worn pairs upstairs. I took out two pairs of Kayla's and left two pairs of hers. I left one pair of Dan's. Brian has one pair on and two pairs in his room. I took out five pairs of mine and left at least two pairs behind. I have a shoe rack on my closet door that holds 18 pairs, it is completely full. I have several pairs on my closet floor...I think I have a shoe addiction! I have everything from flip flops to sandals to tennis shoes to flats to boots. Not only boots - high boots to wear with jeans tucked in, snow boots, mud/pig boots. Flats in black,brown, red, purple and gray. Tennis shoes in green and pink and white and gray. Flip flops in every color under the sun. Tan sandals, black sandals. Yep, it is definitely an addiction...but what a fun addiction it is :)
