Last day working at Grandma Jane's

Yesterday we finished everything we could on Grandma Jane's house. That is until the final home inspection. Then we have to go back and fix all the problems they find. Since we've been spending most of our weekend there for a while, it will be nice to get a break to work on our house for a change.
Uncle Mike is here now helping lift the rest of the joists up. I was only able to help with five of them before my arms turned to mush. Besides I am not a fan of heights and climbing a ladder with huge i joist- just about scared the sh*t out of me.

Longstreet Farms

To prove Ed isn't a complete slave driver. We stopped for lunch and headed over to Longstreet Farm. It was very nice and much needed break. Click on the wagon and head over to see the photos of the animals- both the four legged and two legged kind.

Work has begun

The work has begun on our addition. I am so happy! We had a lot help from Uncle Ray, Aunt Nancy and Ben on Sunday. We got a late start, but the decking is on.

Yesterday Ed had a early day at work so I could go to the doctors. When I got home we put up the walls for the addition. It finally looks like we are getting somewhere.

I took lots of photos. You can see some of them on my flickr. I'm having the hardest time posting on my blog. I keep getting errors and my photos will not upload to blogger.

The lumber has arrived

Working with Daddy

This is serious stuff

Well Hello Blog

Your still here. I'm so glad your here. I know it's been a long time. I've missed you so.

Seriously where have I been??? -Working with Ed. Need I say more. That man is a slave driver.

He never asks for more than he is doing himself. The man just never stops!!! Today he is off somewhere hanging sheet rock. I am taking it easy.... (I just finished grouting the last of the tile in our new bathroom)
