Nov 10 & 11 update
Sorry for the delay in posting…with 100 women (was it only 100?) asking me what to do, then not doing it like I requested…no, that must have been a dream. I did feel like I was sinking in quick mud, but they came to my rescue. The rescue came in the form of Mark Olalor and the babes painting up a storm. They went through 20 gallons of primer by 3:30 and we could not get back from Home Depot with more in time. Monday we have only 2 gals left (Kathy and Chris). Saturday, in addition to painting, Eddie and his crew along with Moose (from Canada) replaced the decking on the front porch and installed the screen door. Siding is now on 3/4 of the house. We will start sanding the floor on Monday and more painting. It is now Sunday evening, Toby just made her stand-by flight home, so I am writing this and reflecting on the week. It was like Extreme Makeover…everyone was working so hard and so fast. We had so many people in the house sometimes it was faster to go out the back door and walk around the house than go through it.
