Christmas Gifts in the Tub

It was much easier to live with the bathtub in the living room for a few days than the refrigerator for a few months; and the bath rehab was a ton more fun.

 Why? Possibly the creative adventure of going potty (without a potty) or diving into my first tile job.  Honestly, I didn't think I had it in me to do all of this construction. But it was nothing compared to skydiving-or Melina, Scott and I kick starting Credit Union Strategic Planning. So why am I  timid about this construction business? I'm about to get over it. Ok, I'm over it. We are doing it. Heck, I'm doing it with a little help from my friends. I can't believe that I fooled myself into thinking this was too much for me to do as a single mom earlier this year. This year has been a blessing for affirming my faith. It's all God.


Status Check: The back house is nearing the home stretch. It now has walls, windows, doors AND the electricity was powered up this week.The countdown to 2010 is on. Dylan recieved his first A on his report card last week (and he earned several). And we added another staffer at Credit Union Strategic Planning- my old colleague and dear friend, Marilyn De Lucia.



Christmas is coming and the gifts disguised as challenges are rockin' my world. Throw some more my way, God. (I'm smiling, grateful and enjoying an occasional bathtub in the living room for a day or four.)

Merry Anything You Celebrate. Merry Christmas!
