    Update Part One, up until Moving Day

    November 4, 2009 |

    Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm back! Around the day we moved and after, I've been feeling really sick. But I've taken my vitamins and I'm back and with a vengance and a boost of energy, lol. I'll be posting more pics from moving day up until now, but for now I'll update you up till that point. I want do something with this energy and get some stuff done today! But I think you're all overdue and a quick update is in order!

    Since last update:
    -Sunday 10/18: Doug and his brother-in-law, Scott, started wiring electric for two lights on either side of the new sliding glass door.
    -Monday 10/19: Electric finished, last of the drywall hung. Finished that night at 1:30 am! Had to get it done because the taper/mud guy was coming at 9 am the next day! Ahh!
    -Tuesday 10/20: Day 1 of taping, I picked the siding color (sand) see pic below.

     
    -Wednesday 10/21: Day 2 of taping. Painting finished on actual cabinets, cabinet doors to be added later.
    -Thursday 10/22: Taping finished! My dad comes over to help us prime and paint. Spent the first night at our house (on the floor)! Didn't get it done until about 1 or 2am. I felt soooooo sick!
     
    -Friday 10/23: Did a second coat on the corners. Clean-up, vaccum, and shampoo the carpet. Went home to finish packing! Again, sooooo sick! I think Doug was frustrated that I wasn't helping with packing, but then I threw up a few times and I think he understood... lol.

    -Saturday 10/23: Moving day! Sooo sick again, fever and broke out in a rash all over. UGH! Thank God for family!! Thanks to everyone who came to help pack, load, drive, visit, provide food, unload, and even UNPACK! The way I've been feeling, I would probably just now be able to unpack and put away my kitchen! Pics to come in "Update Part II,"
