Painting is finished!

We've finally got all the painting in the downstairs completed...well, not us, but the painter.  I think he did a great job.  We love the colors, and it just makes it seem more like home.  I need to take some pics to post.  We need to find new glass doors for our fireplace as the others had pretty bad smoke damage.  I want ones that can be closed with the fire burning, which seems to be hard to find.  Once we have those, we just need a coffee table and a backsplash (probably on hold until next year).  Our painter is going to paint our bedroom and C's bedroom in the fall probably--after we decide what we want up there.  Things are really coming together. 

C and I have had a pretty uneventful week as we had no plans.  We've been so busy with school and errands until this point that we hadn't really had to fill our days.  Today is the first day where we literally have NOTHING. It's 9 am, and I'm already bored.  I'm kind of at a loss of what to do.  Library, CEC (it's a bit cool today and wet), the indoor playcenter.  This is the first time it feels really obvious we don't really know anyone other than family.  I have something most weeks of the summer, but a few gaps, and I don't do well sitting around.  I'm also not great at spur of the moment planning.  C just wants to do the slip-n-slide, but it's been way too cold the last few days.

Looking forward to seeing the final results of the painting! I understand about having nothing to do. I joined a gym this week so hopefully I can at least get back in shape if I don't have any friends! :) How is the moms group going? I so wish there was one near me!
