He is working again today for Kokosing in Ohio. Blech. He is bummed but hopefully, maybe, in another month or so his project there will be done and he can have a shorter commute and not work 4x 10 hr days + 1 normal 'salary' Friday. Its just been a very long summer for him - funny that it was timed perfectly with us buying this house.
Updates on the house:
- Fired our electrician Monday! Still looking for one - let us know if you know of one, please!
- Josh, Rick, and Dave have been working diligently on the house. The woodwork is 95% done. They finished the 2nd floor, and finished the dining room yesterday. I can't wait to see it!
- Got $5k worth of plumbing done - that was a cost we didn't know we would have! It looks great, glad that Matt Mertz Plumbing came in and GOT IT DONE!! Now, we need an electrician to do that!
- Got custom stain from Sherwin Williams. Kept working on it. Still not exactly what we want, so I think we are going to customize the custom stain!! :)

So, I found this a while ago on one of our demo days.... It is proudly displayed on our mantle right now.
Can you tell what this says? I feel bad painting over it... but, I mean... um, yeah. The kids in this house last, their names were Dean and Stormy. I actually got some mail the other day for Stormy. (yes, I am hiding my true feelings)

Oh, and on a side note - the melanoma is all gone! :) Yahoo! But, I have a chunk missing from my arm and a 2 inch scar!! :/
And, the baby is developing well!! 15 weeks today :) A little afraid this one may be bigger than the other one :)
Here's to a weekend of productivity!! :) Have a great day.
Glad they got the melanoma taken care of! I have a big divot like that on my leg. A couple actually.
ReplyDeleteLove the bump - you look great!
Sounds like the house is coming along - very exciting!
