The wallpaper is going.
Well all the agents at the brokers open house on Tuesday said the wallpaper needed to go so today I'm painting, again! :-)
I must say it is frustrating painting for someone else but we want to sell the house for top dollar so 1-2 days worth of work and $20 in paint is worth it. I'm doing it now so that when it's in the 90's (next week. :-) I don't have to do it.
The kids are out of school now (please pray for me. LOL) and so far they have all been getting along great. BJ won a set of kites from a local math TV show and so they have been out playing with those. I have to say I was concerned. They have been bickering amongst themselves so much we are about to go crazy! So how do you handle bickering kids? I will take any advice I can get so I can make it through the summer! (Only 76 more days to go until school starts! :-)
Have a good weekened everyone! We are just staying home and not doing much.

When my daughter and son start bickering so much that I just can't stand it anymore, I just shove them outside TOGETHER and tell them that they can't come inside until they have stopped fighting. They usually whine and yell for a little while, then the next thing I know, they are playing together. If we are in a store and they get started, I make them hold hands. They HATE that one, and that stops the bickering for quite awhile! lol But I have come to the conclusion that the kids only do the arguing when I am around (trying to irritate me or get my attention) because once they are out of my sight, I guess it's just not as fun to them anymore and they begin to get along when they think I am not watching.
I had to publish this as "anonymous" because I still have not made myself blog! lol
