Living Space

well for the past few weeks Scott, Bella, Lady and I have been living in a small room at the extended stay America hotel. We have 2 beds, 2 chairs, 2 plates 2 bowls, 2 glasses, they did give us each a towel. We have a two burner stove, a refrigerator and a microwave. I am tired of living in this space. One it is messy all the time! 1. we have too much stuff in a small place and 2. a couple of people are having a hard time picking up after themselves (its not me). If we all want to eat together we have to move the table over to the bed so one person can sit on that. For Bella to go to bed on time and to go to sleep the rest of us also have to go to bed at 8:00 otherwise the light and/or TV is keeping her awake. I am not sleeping well. The sheet doesn't stay on, the matress pad is lumpy, the room temperature fluctuates and the heat and refrigerator coming on desturbs my sleep as does the dog and/or my husband. I am tired of living there and who knows how long we will be there. I guess we are waiting at this point for Benson Stone to schedule install of the vented insert and until that is done they can't close the walls us because we need an inspection. I just hope Benson stone finds a time to squeeze in our install. After that the restoration folks are saying things should move along fairly quickly.

Work is still stressful and this past wednesday we were suppose to have a staff meeting about the re-arrangement of duties but it got canceled. I guess MC stated that she was not going to admit she was wrong but just try and be pleasant. I am not sure she really did anything wrong in the first place. And MC is one of those folks who you can see right through her Pleasantness. Andrea says she is going to do the same thing, but this stick you head in the sand, paint a smile on your butt technique is not going to work. Leadership is lacking, somehow I think work is getting done. The meeting has been rescheduled to Monday 4-5 but the GC has a meeting before and after so I hope it can be done in the hour time frame especially when we never seem to start on time.

Scott works the weekend. Bella and I need to take the car for an oil change and probably a wash, we need to do laundry and work on the basement at the house and find some baptism pictures so she can complete her faith journal which is due on Sunday. If She gets her faith journal done I told her she could go spend her gift cards from Christmas. I don't know what else we will do this weekend and then Bella is off on Monday because of MLK day. Scott is off too so they will be spending the day together.

I sure hope we are home by Valentines day.
