Big weekend

We were very motivated to get some cleaning up done as Tom and Molly were arriving Saturday morning. We had a good work day Friday as Peter got the primer on the basement bathroom, hallway, and stairwell. Friday we got the painting done and the bathroom back in business. All the tools and work stuff were removed or put in the work room, the sectional got moved to the living room, rugs down, bedrooms almost looking real. We stored the extra hardwood flooring and organized the rest.

It was fun to see Tom and Molly. It was great to have the architect of the porch put his approval on the almost finished front porch. Way to go Brandon and crew-perfect. We also found a Honda Express at a rummage sale, so Peter has his long awaited mo-ped for his early birthday present.

Sunday Peter roto-tilled the front garden area and we planted tomatoes, peppers, a melon, beans, and flowers. We put a new light fixture in the downstairs bedroom and the stairwell.
The blinds are helping a lot, the house is staying around 70-75 now. Having the high casement windows open all the time is great. The water cooler with Mary's artesian water is working out nicely.

I will put some pictures on tomorrow.
