House Progress, etc.

I wanted to update a little on our house . . . we were able to put most of the living room border up on Saturday, as well as get Jim's tractor shed all ready for the metal roofing, which was to be delivered today. So maybe they can put that on tomorrow, as long as it's not raining! Also, a guy is coming on Saturday to measure the master bedroom for carpet . . . then we will get that ordered and hopefully installed, soon! We have ordered one butcher block maple countertop for the kitchen--not sure what we'll end up with for the other 2 counters, in the long run (we have one black and one dark red one in there right now, leftovers from various jobs Jim has done). The kitchen is also all primed now and ready to paint. We're going with the same cream color in there that we used for the top half of the living room. And the septic/dirt work is in progress! Yay!! :)

I cleaned out the freezer and made an inventory of everything in it, a few days ago. Here's the lovely result:


Well, I'm in the process of making a cake for my Grampa's birthday, so I need to go wash up some dishes, make the frosting, and then think about getting supper! I just typed a whole long entry about my control journal, so I'll post that one too. I hope someone may find it interesting and helpful!

Hope you all are having a great week and looking forward to a happy weekend ahead.
