<\/p>\nOur weekend was NOT as productive as we would have liked. WE did bring home tile though!! YAY! (ooh and liights) Charlie also managed to get about another 1\/2 of the bathroom painted. He’s going to busy in the evenings this week. The plan is to FINISH paint, rip up the carpet and start\/finish tile over the weekend.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
My mom and step dad are probably coming into town to help me keep the boys entertained so Charlie can work without interruptions.<\/p>\n
Anyways we got distracted because of our washing machine. The thing is only 8 years old but the pump makes all kinds of grinding noises, it rattles like an amusement park ride and our towels STINK like — Well they are just gross. I don’t really notice the smell on clothes. That is a good thing though. Examining that took a big chunk out of the day.<\/p>\n
The rubber accordion pipe that goes to the pump was disgusting. We cleaned that out. So We ordered new shocks and a new pump. Hopefully that will help with the noise. When Charlie takes it apart he will see if there is gunk anywhere else because we washed a “new” load last night and the towels still stink.<\/p>\n
This is really frusterating because we do not want to have to spend the money on a new washer. Our goal was to wait until it dies so we can get a matching set (we got a huge, perfectly functioning dryer in CRAIGS LIST for only $50 about 4 years ago)….and we were hoping we’d get more life out of it then we have. The dryer? Still works like a charm.<\/p>\n
I would be tempted to do a regular washer but it is to hard to reach in and get everything out. Why don’t you try it yourself and see :D. I can do it but Front loader is much easier (and then the boys can’t help \ud83d\ude09 )<\/p>\n

Enough about the stupid washer. Floors. We really want all new floors. The carpet is a cream color and came with the house when they built it (96?). It’s not BAD but it goes flat quickly and well .. .. it’s LIGHT. So we bought a good carpet shampooer in hopes that we can stretch the carpet a little longer.

I havent written anything about the boys. BAD MOMMY. Hmmm …Our weekend was just really stressful and the boys we very into EVERYTHING, making it even crazier.<\/p>\n
We thougt we needed a new battery for the van but that worked out and we do NOT – yay.<\/p>\n
Enough rambling. Sorry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
