What a Busy Week!

This week has been very busy, especially for Doug and even more so for Ricky and crew. We began packing up our bedroom, bathroom, closet, and TV room/Kristen's downstairs bedroom on Wednesday. Doug began around 1:00 Wednesday and I began helping around 7:00 that night after I finally got home. Doug must have walked up and down the stairs a million times that day/night. We finally wrapped things up around midnight. Thanks to Lynn English for sending us soup and cornbread for supper...we ate at midnight and it was delicious!

I know Ricky was so glad that we cleared things out downstairs so he could begin the demolition/construction of those rooms. Things have changed drastically since Wednesday.

Charkee and Kolle checking out the bed upstairs.
 Even though we have moved upstairs, we are still living out of boxes. After downstairs is finished, we will move back down there so no need to unpack to have to just pack it back up again. The house now has a wonderful glue aroma from all the sheetrock other work that has been done. I'm glad that the upstairs rooms are nice and big. It makes living in just two rooms so much easier! Doug is still cooking on the grill, which I'm very thankful for. Neither one of us loves eating takee outee or fast food!
