More Balls in the Air

So, I have been writing alot about the upcoming Mitzvah.  Of course, there are lots of things to plan, and schedule.  And this has been three years in the waiting.

Today, we have contractors coming (in fact our favorite contractor, Dave Supple and his crew from New England Design and Construction) are coming to remove our water stains from the ice dam.  I can't believe we managed to squeeze in the BEST crew to come over and fix the wall, the ceiling and the interior of the wall and the back gutter.  We are very excited to have them back. Here is a link to our kitchen on their website!

 In addition, we still need to having our roofing company back and fix the roof.  We used a great company years back to install the roof, and we had that company remove snow from our roof.  Their crew damaged our shingles, and the company plans on making it right.  I am so relieved we used a good, reputable company, and that the general manager came to the house to see the shingles himself. 

In addition, I haven't shared much of this, but my parents separated last year, and it appears as though the divorce will be final next month.  It has been a rough time for both of my parents, and for our family in general.  The kids know that each grandparent loves them, but it is different to see them alone.  What really got my emotions, was that Naomi wrote a beautiful story about how the Buchanan Road house was one of her favorite places to visit, and she described my pink room, and my old doll house. 

In addition, still driving the kids around, especially to Bar Mitzvah tutoring, religious school, and other activities.

Looking forward to the day that the water stain is gone!  Thanks Dan and Dave, and your amazing crew.
