WOOD FLOORS!
The wood floor in the kitchen/dining area was officially completed last night. YAY! We have yet to put the trim in (in the living room, too), but other than that, it's DONE! And it's so pretty. Dad and i ended up doing t… -
What we accomplished on Day One
Jonathan and Dad ripped out all the old flooring today-- every scrap of it-- and pulled out all the bottom cabinets. Some of the cabinets took a little more work than others. One actually couldn't be taken out without kn… -
Today is the day!
First of all: VBS is over, and it went wonderfully well. Jonathan's parents are here, and they are here to slave away! In May we went to Indiana so Jonathan could help Dad renovate Mom's kitchen, and they decided to jus… -
The month in review
Today i am typing in a beautifully clean living room, with sparkly wood floors, waiting for the kitchen floor to dry (and trying to keep the dog from walking on it). What have we been up to lately? Christmas and New Yea… -
Nearly there, day 19
We ran out of nails at 1:a on Sonday night (that is, Monday morning), so we went to bed. i estimate that we have six rows left-- so close! Meanwhile, Mildred is here and we're having a ball. -

Still plodding along, day 12
This morning we put in two more rows before Jonathan had to return the rental tools and go to class. Now we're up to 22 rows! One more row and we'll be almost exactly 1/3 of the way through the living room; two more rows… -
Plodding along, day 11
Last night (Saturday) we were up until about 3:30, with plans to get up at 6 and work a little before church. i never heard the alarm at all, or Jonathan telling me he reset it for 8. For that matter, he was barely awake… -
A slow and painful redemption, day 10
This morning we got up a little late and went to Home Depot for felt paper, a nailer, an air compressor, and nails. We got back with enough time to put down the rest of the felt paper, and then the window-estimate lady a…
