Rambling thoughts and some best wishes

When I first started writing this, I did it because I enjoy reading so many other people's blogs, and I thought that I might have something to say. While this is still true, the fact is, my life is really boring to everyone but me. Plus, I can't seem to remember to write something every month, let alone every week or every day. I really think it would help if we ever got the construction finished on the house, and I had a place to work from. But then, what would I write about? (OK, so I realize that I don't write about anything now, but work with me people!)

The hubs has finally agreed to hire someone to finish the kitchen ceiling, which is what has been holding us back lo these many months. If we could get that done, we might actually be able to really move into the house. Our stuff has been packed up for so long, I don't even remember what all I'm missing. I'm hoping to be able to get rid of some of it one way or another. Maybe even make a buck or two when I do.

Some friends of ours are getting married tomorrow. I think they're a great couple, and wish them all the best. And I'm really looking forward to celebrating their marriage with them.

Sometimes I worry that all of the stress and strain of planning and going through a wedding these days doesn't do the relationship too much good. These things have just gotten out of hand. It seems like some people go so far into debt just to get through the ceremony, they could have paid for a house and two cars instead. Of course, building a house from scratch with your spouse, and doing the construction yourselves isn't the smartest idea I've ever had either!

I linked here from Deborah, and I'm glad I did. Aaarrgggh, having your house under construction and your things in storage is completely disruptive. We had a major fire 3 years ago and as a result, have lived through quite a lot of construction and having things in storage, so I know a little about this. I'm interested in what you have to say, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Please keep writing!

Yeah, that Debber...talk about construction problems.

You have a good start here. Don't be concerned about whether your life will be interesting to others. Just write.
