  This is my boyfriend's absolute favorite pic of me. It has been decided that we are tearing out the ceiling in the kitchen. I think we may do that this weekend. We will buy and install new drywall, when we figure out how to get it home from the store. We might have to rent…

I may as well face it: I'm sick.My kiddo came home from school Thursday with a hideous cough. He slept the entire&h...
