Day 78: If the Sheets are a Rockin', Then don't Come a Knockin'!


Yes, we have been rockin' the sheets around here. 

Note: Simmer down, everyone. Sheetrock. Drywall.

Big News! It almost appears as if we are going to have an actual house again. A house with walls and floors and maybe even stuff inside of it.

But I'm getting ahead of myself.

The floors went in and for a brief moment, we caught glimpses of the glory. We caught glimpses because as soon as it went down, it was covered. 

Good grief. Can't I just have a little joy?

My flooring guys did a great job. But they worked in slow motion. Sometimes I believe that they actually went backward. I'm not kidding. Note: I am kidding. But barely.

This photo was taken about 3 weeks later. No it wasn't. It just felt like it!

Then the drywall guys got started. It took a full day for them to bring the 'rock' into the house. My little house sits down from the street with a brick walkway to the front door. The dudes used a cart and it kept rolling out of control which was terribly entertaining, indeed.

Note: The posts will be wrapped with wood and painted. Do not be alarmed.

So, to save a buck or two thousand five hundred, The Hub and I will be painting this weekend. Our color?

Think of us while you are swimming. Or boating. Or picnicking. Or shopping. Or lounging. On your fat behinds.

Ha!

Heck, yes!
