Getting things done.

We accomplished A LOT yesterday! First, Derek got a job (he starts on Monday) he is making almost $10 more/hour and it is much closer to home (2 miles away)!! I don't think it has set in for him yet, I hope he enjoys the work!
So since Derek is at home this week, he has put himself to work...he gets up at 5:30 and starts unpacking, hanging, folding, etc... Yesterday he was able to pull all the nails at the old house and fill them. When I got home from work I painted everything, we only have about 1/2 a days work over there. I met with the tenants last night and everything is set for them to move in on November 1st!! Yay!!
I got to the store last night and actually stayed OP all day. I got 2 loads of laundry done and I made it to the doctor (UTI). I am exhausted today. I have my first midterm tonight, class tomorrow and another midterm Wednesday. We have a wedding in Southwest MN this weekend so we will not make any progress on the house. I wish I could just stay home and decorate! I can't wait to pick out some colors and get things looking like home! I will try and take some pictures one of these days so you can see the new pad!!
Well, I better get motivated here and get some real work done!! Hope everyone has great OP days!

Congrats to Derek! Things always work themselves out...for the better! And $10 more per hour is definitely for the better!!!! That's awesome!

Sounds like you have a good handle on things--that's great! Can't wait to see pics of the new pad! :)
