Okay, we've had the house a week and it is looking good. We've done soooo much. In some ways it feels like we are almost done and in other ways it feels like we've got soooo much more to do before I move in next weekend (if everything still goes according to plan...and to be honest I'm not the only person who has a say in this).
Last Sunday Josh, Melissa, Regan, Quinn, Mom and I were all over there working. Rose came too - although we were getting ready to wrap up by the time she got there. We had a birthday party planned for Quinn so we didn't work the whole day. I have to admit too that by Sunday I was worn out and sore so was doing more Supervising than working.
Josh worked on his bedroom. Melissa, Regan, and Mom tackled the kitchen walls. Quinn got started on a ''surprise" project for me which I have not seen.
Josh and his brother Jared finished up Josh's bedroom on Tuesday and started window trim. Mom says that he did such a good job on the windows that that's his job on Sunday. He says that's just because she doesn't like doing them!
Mom and I spent a little time over there each night with the exception of last night (Thursday). Dad came over Tuesday or Wednesday night and sprayed down the basement for me with bleach water.
Ike started on the floors last night which is very exciting. He said we would be able to walk on them by 8pm tonight but I'm saying we might as well wait till tomorrow morning. Mom saw them this morning when she dropped stuff off for me and said they look awesome!
So, I'm going to be heading over there very shortly to start on the basement. This will be the first day working on it and that's what makes it seem like a lot to do. However, a lot of that down there can be done once I move too (although we want to get as much done as possible before because you tend to not get projects done when there is no urgency to get in the house).
Can't wait to show off the pictures.
