Accomplishments

This week and weekend is the time for accomplishments.  Not for me, mind you... but for others!  

Mom had her sleep test Thursday night.  It didn't go well (read her blog for details), and she is not happy.  But in a way, it did go well, because the end result is that they said she does have a severe sleeping problem.  The good thing is that maybe, just maybe (fingers crossed) this is the reason for her not feeling well lately.  So if determining the problem is the hardest part, then she is on her way to feeling better.  And she so needs that!  I know the last few months have been very trying on her, and I am so proud of her.  At the end of the day, I know she will get through it all just fine.  But in the meantime, I know it doesn't it always feel that way.  

Trey left last night and headed to Blanco for a weekend of building.  He and Grandad (and as it turns out Grammy too - what a trooper) are building Madelyn's bunkbed this weekend.  When I talked to Trey at 4:30 this afternoon, they'd already gotten all of the materials, cut and framed the top bunk, the desk, and were working on the steps.  WOW - I am super impressed at their progress in one day.  Trey never ceases to amaze and wow me...  I can't wait to see the finished product.  Don't worry - I'll take lots of pictures and post them for all to see.  

On his way to Blanco, Trey stopped off and got to take Madelyn to dinner, and see her new house.  They had a wonderful time... went to Luby's (Madelyn's choice - since she and Trey love it, and I DO NOT), went to see Madelyn's new school (where she'll be next year - very close to their house), played on the playground a little bit, and just got to spend some good Daddy - Puds time.  They both loved it, and I am a little jealous that I missed it!!

Work this week was crazy busy, but it's the weekend now, and I am so looking forward to hanging out and not doing much.  Although the cleaning supplies in our house are calling my name - I'm just not sure I'm going to answer.  Man, I wish I could find a housekeeper that could come once every 2 weeks or once a month...  I would even consider giving up some of my starbucks to pay for it!
