Thank you so so so so so much for...Awwww you guys!! Thank you so so so so so much for the kind words. I really have been having a tough time with everything...I can't get on my desktop until the electricity is looked into, so I'm using this old and slow laptop. I can't upload pics from my camera but hope to have that back maybe as early as tomorrow evening. I needed to read these things you guys, I really needed to hear them. Thank you so so much my friends!!Rhonda @ The Cozy Lofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18087234632016733779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1216332187361905995.post-370029054535129932011-09-01T15:18:23.918-07:002011-09-01T15:18:23.918-07:00a bad day here and there is expected- you are so...a bad day here and there is expected- you are so close don't get too discouraged. window air conditioner can be a temporary fix and I think you can put the walls in and tape them - I'll see if I can find a DIY on youtube.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16377887398446674884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1216332187361905995.post-27224585682515365972011-08-31T15:03:15.316-07:002011-08-31T15:03:15.316-07:00PLEASE please don't let yourself get down!! Y...PLEASE please don't let yourself get down!! You have worked so hard!! :) So let's see. Maybe we can come up with some short-term solutions for the things that can't be done right now (because let's face it, honey...not everything on your list can probably be done in two days).<br /><br />Is there a room that is pretty much short-term done? If so, maybe you can throw some drop cloths on the floor and move just about everything in there so that you can still keep working in the other areas. <br /><br />As for the AC, as long as the electrical outlets are okay, I would say borrow as many fans as you can! LOL As for the windows, while it's not ideal, you can push pin sheets or tablecloths up temporarily over the windows where you'll sleep and dress. <br /><br />Where does the two days come from? Your lease at your apt? The time you've allowed yourself to take off work? If it's your lease, you might see if they'll let you pay a day or week rate to give you a little extra time. If not, could you crash at your parents for a few nights so you'd have some place to shower and a cool place to sleep? I don't know what the exact situation is, but just trying to throw some ideas out there. :(<br /><br />Keep your chin up! This too will pass and the yucky stuff will be over before you know it! Then it will be fun stuff - painting and decorating! :)<br /><br />Love you and again, I am SO SO SO P-R-O-U-D of you!!! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1216332187361905995.post-90743483777568795792011-08-29T23:06:08.607-07:002011-08-29T23:06:08.607-07:00Rhonda, you have accomplished so much already! In ...Rhonda, you have accomplished so much already! In fact, you have done more to fix up your house in one month than we have to ours in 18 years! <br /><br />Maybe you can make another list of the things that absolutely must be done prior to moving in and another list that could be done after you are in. I know you want it all done before you get there, but this could be a back-up plan. Or, it will at least help you prioritize what really needs to come first. Maybe you have already made a mental list like this. But, the main point I want to make is...YOU ARE SO AWESOME!
