T’s Room

T’s room is coming together in our absence. Scot has been very busy and has almost got the room completely painted. We get to see it for ourselves when we get home tomorrow but for now these pictures will have to do. 

Our House

After 3 days of cleaning with my mothers help the house is clean. It feels so much better to be in the house now. It was long overdue for a good deep clean. Glad we were able to be a blessing to her as well for spending so much of her time helping us. 

And now the boys are priming the ceiling so paint can go on this week😁.

3rd Dan Black Belt

T’s 3rd Dan Black Belt is in and hanging. So looking forward to graduation on December 7th. 

Easing Back Into Training

Easing back into training has been going great. T had soreness for a couple of days because he hasn’t worked out like he’s used to doing for four weeks while having PT. So glad he’s on the mend and doing good. Now to get back into the grove of training and getting back to where he was before the injury happened. He knows it’s going to be a lot of hard work. He also knows from this week of being back and easing into training that it’s going to suck until he’s where he needs to be. He knows it will be short term as long as he puts in the hard work though. 

T’s Bedroom Set

T chose this bedroom set. The bed is a full size and he got two of the dressers. We got it all from IKEA. We love that place. We went looking at mattresses before T and I had to leave for Charlotte and the mattress he wants cost more thaN the entire bedroom set😳. So now I’m hoping to take him back to IKEA this evening in hopes that I can talk him into a memory foam mattress😁. 

Day 2 in Charlotte

T is easing back into training with his team and coach. He’s had a busy two days. Tonight he is feeling a little bit of muscle soreness. I told him that’s what happens when you have to take time off for an injury. Now he’s gotta get back to where he was before his injury. It’s all a process. He’ll get there. He has an early morning tomorrow and a busy day of training with his teammates so Happy Veteran’s Day early to all of our blog followers. So thankful for all of our Veterans. Have a blessed night and holiday! 

T’s New Bedding

T’s new bedding to go with his new bedroom furniture. Can’t wait to get this bedroom together and ready for T to enjoy. He picked blue and grey for his walls. Scot’s from Kentucky and his entire family are huge UK fans. T has a torn house because momma is a UNC fan. Of course UNC blue does not look good on a wall...LOL! I can’t remember the last time I kept up with college sports though. Life is so busy. It’s perfectly fine that T likes UK. This set sure looks real nice!  

My Appointments

Blood tests from my physical yesterday came back all normal. Woohoo🙌!!!  Eye exam today showed what I expected and that is that I need an updated prescription. It’s been a few years since I had a new prescription and I was noticing a change. Now to get used to the new prescription. 

A Work in Progress

Well, the window is out after a ton of prying and stuff. Scot said to me, with a smile on his face, if you ever ask me to seal a window again you may be having to get bail money...LOL! His expression and smile had me rolling on the floor laughing. 

Backstory: I had him seal T’s bedroom window shut years ago when T was a toddler because we were getting overwrought with lady bugs in T’s bedroom. 

Now that we are finally redoing his room and replacing said window it was a bear to get out.  

I just smiled back at my awesome husband and said, “I love you Honey and appreciate all you do for us😁🥰.”

Pics from earlier today

Scot had a commercial project this afternoon at a repeat client near the neighborhood I grew up in as a kid. The business is actually in the old Piggly Wiggly where my mom did most, if not all, of her shopping when I was a young child. Even though there’s a new store in it now I have tons of memories from when I was a child. What was cool was that the new store had a lot of old pictures and cans from the old Piggly Wiggly. I got some pictures of T and I. I was showing T around and telling him what shops were what when I was growing up. It was a fun afternoon looking around while Scot did the commercial project.
