TA DA Tuesday

I felt a bit of Ta Da by the end of today. Lots going on - and even I finally got some traction and checked a few things off our list on my own! SWL arrived early to find the neighbors tree and dropped a HUGE limb on the drive. Thank goodness we weren't parked under it (as we usually are). It did minor damage to the bushes there - but I did get them trimmed and planted after SWL had removed the tree to the neighbors yard. Later they had a tree service haul it all away, as well as prune the dead wood out of their big front trees... nice, and maybe something you will consider with your front tree at some point.

SWL then moved on to the kitchen floor. Not too much progress there today - but more boosted confidence that he has it beat. He was happily interrupted by the dry wallers!! Oh what a difference it makes to have a white ceiling and walls! When I left this afternoon they'd started to tape and mud! I think they'll finish this week. I moved on to icky insulation work.... not a fun task - but something I'm capable of doing on my own. I did the knee wall of the MBR, and the floor of the front knee wall space. SWL moved outside to install cleaning access to all your downspouts.... so that you can flush them to prevent backup (and so water at the foundation). We did have dirt spread around the foundation - a communication glitch where it was DONE rather than just DELIVERED!! Yea - check!

So - big day on Barrington. Tomorrow - more dry wall. Hope to see Randy the tile guy?? And might see some action in Cyd's closet? Tonight we'll do Try it Tuesday with Cal - best restaurant in Columbus is supposed to be sushi.... somewhere we've never heard of. Tonight we'll check it out! We'll let you all know.
