New Rooms

Hey all, Well I promised pics of the two rooms that I've been messing with and here they are!! The picture above is looking into my room from the doorway. The corner desk is new and that is my treadmill sitting next to it. And of course, Sugar laying on the bed!!

This next photo is the new tv stand. I put my dresser inside the closet to make more room. I spared you all and didn't take a photo of inside the closet (even though I REALLY wanted to and yes it is clean!!)

This is the new guest room/craft room. I love the new futon cushion. It is VERY thick!! It looks very classy!! Tyler was the first one to try it out last weekend.

I got to stay home today so I got a lot of stuff finished up. I cleaned up Kalyn's room, now that she is gone until the 8th. I also did some small things around the house and finally that Mr. Fix-it guy, Joe, came over today and put my new exhaust fan in the kids' bathroom. He only charged me $25!! I told him NOOOO....I will give you $50. He drove to Santa Fe to buy the fan, had to go to two or three different places to get it and then it took him an hour to install. I figured $50 would be the cost of just the fan!!! So, that was nice of him.

I'm about to go workout, so I better go. Enjoy the pics!! Until next time....

Almost Memorial weekend!!

Hey all,

Well, I've been real busy working on my days off from the bank!! I've been doing cleaning jobs, working at the gym, doing things around the house...It's never-ending!! I'm having a good time though.

Reuben and I drove to Santa Fe on Monday and did a bunch of different kind of shopping. I had to get a couple rugs, some things for the swamp cooler, flowers to plant...things like that. We had a good time and ate at Panda Express. We had to be back so that I could work at 6 and we got back to town about 4:30.

Tuesday, I planted my flowers, I got my haircut, met Catrina for lunch, cleaned for the Courtright's for two hours, went and visited with Keith and then took a short nap before working at the gym last night.

Today, I mowed the lawn, trimmed all the grass around the house and shed, got the ladder out and went around the entire house caulking all the cracks and washing all the windows, turned the water on for the hoses for outside and then watered the plants. I had yardwork planned for today and that's what I've done so far. I'm gonna make lunch for me and K and then she needs me to get her hair dyed for her. I also need to run some errands uptown, but may wait until I drop her off at work to do that. I work at 6, so will get it all done before that. I don't work at the gym after tonight until next week, so that leaves me the weekend to do whatever. Pretty excited!!

Thursday I have to be at the Courtright's to clean more. This time the main level. She is having me do the "spring cleaning" now. I did the upstairs yesterday. She had me polish all the wood furniture, dust all the blinds, dust off the 3 ceiling fans, clean both bathrooms up there and then vacuum. Then, I will come home, have lunch and then head to Angie's for the afternoon. I can't clean for her on Saturday due to me going to the graduation, so she is having me Thursday and possibly Friday for a little bit. She has a renter in her basement now and needs help getting that all ready.

Friday, I have a guy coming over to finally fix my fan in the kids' bathroom. We keep postponing him coming over, so hopefully he does Friday!! LOL Kalyn also leaves Friday for a week to go to Clovis with her Grandma Barb. Shane and Stephanie are coming here to LA for the weekend. They are staying at Tj and Diana's house. Tj and Diana got back here yesterday and we saw them in the parking lot at the gym when K was dropping me off to work!! lol Anyways, I also took a load of Shane's stuff over to T and D's house in case he would like to take it back home with him and that way he won't need to come over here for any reason.

So, that's what I've been up to.....busy, busy, but it's so nice to get some of this stuff done. I won't have another vacation until August, so I better enjoy this now!! I pretty much have everything done now. All the big stuff anyway....well we still have to do the swamp cooler, but that's not too much of a big deal.

That's all I've got for now. Until next time...

May stuff.....

Hey all,

Well, not much going on around the 2 Schultz' house these days. I'm working on changing up some of the items of furniture in my house. So far, I got the futon in the now "new" guest room/craft room and also got a corner computer desk (to make more room for me in my bedroom) and also a tall tv stand for my bedroom as well. Stayed up late last night putting the tv stand together, but got it done. Looks good too. I promise pictures when I get everything moved around. I have to put the treadmill in my room now due to the futon in the guest room. I really couldn't pass up a free, very nice looking futon, so I'm putting up with having the treadmill in my room. oh well...

I moved my regular dresser into my closet instead of having the tv sit on that. I got the new tv stand setup and it is ready to go. Leaves a lot of room already in my bedroom. I left the computer desk at the bank (thats where I had it delivered) so I will need to go by there and pick that up to begin assembling, etc. I'm real excited to have a "change", you know? Now, I will just need to find time to enjoy my craft room and new look in the bedroom.

I'm helping K this weekend with some catch-up schoolwork and also her defensive driving class (online). We need to get it all done this weekend, so I'm taking tomorrow and just dedicating it to helping her. I told her today that I have the whole day to help and get it done. Her final test for the DD has to be proctored, so I want her to do that on Tuesday with my boss, Lesley, at the bank. The proctor has to be a notary. The DD course is due the 25th and so is her community service. She has done 6 hours of the community service, so we are almost there!! So proud of her!!

Until next time.....

Mother's Day 2010

Hey all,

I had a pretty wonderful Mother's Day and wanted to share with you....

I got this soft, soft Gund bear from Kalyn and the card too!! She surprised me with it by saying (as I walked in the door from getting my Mother's Day facial!!)...."Mom, will you put my laundry in the dryer please?"....so I said "sure!"...and proceeded to walk to the washer/dryer area. I opened the door and look what was sitting there to greet me!!! I thought that was really cute!! I can't stop talking about how soft this bear is. She knows me too well!!

Tyler called me around 6:30 while we were eating dinner. We chatted for a few minutes and then we were finished. It was really nice of him to call and I was hoping he was going to!!

Kalyn took me to a movie "Furry Vengeance" and then we had steaks on the grill for dinner. The whole day was really nice!!

Until next time.... (did I mention the bear is soft????)

Happy May!!

Hey all,

Wow!! This year sure is flying by. The weather here has been cold and snowy!! Not what I predicted for the beginning of May!!! As we speak, I'm wearing a sweatshirt cuz I'm chilly!! Soon it will warm up and I think it is supposed to sometime this week.

Not much going on today. Had to clean for Angie and now feeling lazy, lazy. I laid down for a bit, but now feel like doing something to feel motivated!!! Ah well....it's Sunday!! I can be lazy if I want. Already went and visited Keith for the day. He's had company so I haven't seen him since Wed or Thurs.

Kalyn is off seeing the play "The Wiz" over at the High school. She gets extra credit for going so she decided to go. I'm proud of her.

That's all I've got for today!! Until next time...
