Making Progress

The drywall, mudding and sanding is finished.  Kevin hung plastic between the new room and the rest of the house, so there wasn’t quite as much dust.  However, there was still a lot.  He has painted the ceiling and put two coats on the walls.  Three of the outlets are working.  He is in the process of putting up the ceiling fan. 
 

Saturday we went to Lowe’s and bought all the flooring, wood, the rest of the switches, etc.  In other words, we bought a lot of stuff.  I also bought another battery for my new weedeater.  The original one always seems to run out of juice before I finish. 

 

The grass has been cut (mine anyway), and most of the weed wacking has been done.  Kevin got rid of a lot of the stuff that was laying around due to the construction, and I have been picking up little stuff (including nails) with my picker upper (do you like that description?).  The other night when I was weed wacking I accidentally stepped on an ant hill.  I have numerous bites around my ankles.  They itch like crazy, but are slowly getting better.

 

The past week they have been predicting that we would get a lot of rain from KAREN.  Didn’t happen.  We had some showers, but not much else.  The weather is supposed to cool down now. 

 

I’ve been cleaning my house now.  Actually, I am doing my “fall” cleaning.  I have been wiping down walls, washing windows, curtains, etc.  I waited until the sanding was finished, and I am glad I did. 

 

Okay, break is over.  Back to work J
