Here we go again…

August 11, 2009

Tomorrow morning the mold rememdiation crew will invade our home. Our bathroom walls will be cut about 3 or 4 feet up and once they can see inside the walls, we’ll know the extent of the damage. (Please, Lord, let it be minimal).

One might think that because it’s just the bathroom, it wouldn’t affect our lives so much. Think again. Since it’s the shower that Collin uses, we had to remove the door and shower doors on our other bathroom so he can use that one while the moldy one is out of commssion. (If you’re new here, Collin is in a wheelchair, so special accommodations need to be made. It’s not just that he’s picky about his shower, but wouldn’t that be a hoot?). So, that means that we need to change our morning routine, which we have down to a fine art.

Also, because there’s a chance that Elyana’s walls are also affected, we had to clear out her entire closet. I don’t know about you, but other than clothes, closets are where I put stuff that I don’t really want to deal with. Translation: we have a lot of crap in that one closet. So, now, all of her clothes and all of our crap is in our dining room.

This brings back a lot of memories of when I was a kid and we remodeled our kitchen. My bedroom became the place where all of our kitchen stuff was stored, we did dishes in the bathtub and everything was all askew for what seemed like forever. I don’t even remember where I slept, I just remember that my daybed was storage for our pots, pans, crock pots, dishes and tupperware (it was a mighty big day bed). And I remember eating a lot of peanut butter and jelly. I digress.

Isn’t it crazy how a project can completely uproot your entire household? So, bear with my moodiness as nothing is in it’s place. Maybe you could pray for Collin, too. He’s a saint for putting up with me. All the time, not just during mold season.

We’ll keep you posted…
