*sigh*

I know I know- it has been 2 days since my last confession----err I mean post.  Patience people!  Rome wasn't built in a day.  I have finished painting the bookshelves in the Family room and the girls room.  I will get pics of the finished products up ASAP!  I promise.  In the meantime- here is the cabinet update.  Today at approximately 9:53 am my phone rang and the caller ID said "The Home Depot"  eeeeeee!!!  I was so excited!!! UNTIL the lackluster voice at the other end told me that my cabinets would be here on July 6th......bleh...what???  what happened to 3-4 weeks?  by my reckoning that makes it nearly 6!!  That is like telling my kids that Christmas is the 25- and once the 25 was close telling them that they would have to wait another 2 weeks to get their presents!!  NOOOOO!

On another note- some of you may recall getting "life with Harry" emails- well- here is another installment in that thrilling saga!
I was sitting at the computer when I hear:
"mom- um I put a plate in the toaster oven"
Harry was trying to warm up a sausage link on an IKEA kids plate in the toaster oven!  There were "cheesy" strings of pink plastic dripping down through the rack and reaching to the burners and the lovely aroma of burnt plastic hung in the air.  When I took it out it it stiffened to form pink stalactites.  nice.  I know!  I should have taken a picture, but it was taking all my brain power to calmly fix the situation!  I am pretty sure that we need a new toaster oven now......which isn't *too* bad.
