No pictures

I was going to post some recent pics but I can't find the camera cord. Our house is still in disarray because we have no shelves, cupboards, closets, etc. The master bedroom is the only one with a closet. We brought with us a couple of smallish wardrobes we bought in Kuwait. Now that they've been moved twice and they were cheapy to begin with they are falling apart. The doors don't shut correctly and the drawers come off the rails when they're pulled out. The wardrobes are filled and everything else is just spilling out onto the floors.

Add to that we have to do homeschool on the top floor because that's the only place with a consistent internet connection. It's still blazing hot here (low to mid 90's) so the top floor is like an oven. Petey and Cricket's bedroom is also on the top floor. I couldn't stand the heat anymore and since their bedroom has an A/C I decided to move the couches into their bedroom so we could have homeschool in their bedroom. We all sit on the couches and bed and do our work. Needless to say, the girls' bedroom is a mess even though I try to get all the kids to clean up all their stuff every day. But every day it's slightly more messy and out of control.

We're having some desks, some bookshelves, and a wardrobe made. The original plan was that they'd be done "on the 27th day of Ramadan" which means they should be done this week. I'm looking forward to getting them but if we do get them this week, we won't know what to do with them. We keep hearing we'll get DSL soon. So do we put 6 desks and 4 bookcases downstairs in the basement and put together the wardrobe up on the 3rd level in the girls' room with the hopes we get DSL soon? Or will we continue to have to do homeschool on the top level and we'll be spending time in a couple of months moving desks, shelves, wardrobes, and all the junk on and in them up and down a lot of stairs because the DSL thing never happened?

So why don't I just put the girls downstairs and make the room upstairs the school room to begin with, you ask? I have thought of that and that still may happen but for now I'm just crossing my fingers that we get some information on the DSL this week. IF we get DSL this week it'd just be easier for lots of reasons to keep girls upstairs and set up shop downstairs.

Meanwhile, we have eleventy billion cords for who knows what around this house but no clue what they should attach to but not one of them belongs to the camera.
