Weekly Round-Up: If It’s Not One Thing, It’s Another

One of the panes on the front door to our current apartment has cracked and needs to be replaced; this afternoon the back windshield to my car exploded. Thank goodness for good insurance!

We’re hip high in boxes and it’s a ‘big mess’ as my kids would say, everywhere you look. On the other hand, we’re only about a week away from living in our new apartment! Woo Hoo!
