Day 63 (July 18th)

Painting has continued this week. The house walls are getting wrapped up. Now the painter will starting spraying the trim boards and interior doors soon. Our cabinets are in the garage and scheduled to be installed this Saturday. We will be painting some of our walls Saturday to give them some color. We just went with the standard beige from Wayne Homes in the whole house. That will be a good base for us to paint over here and there.

This past Tuesday my excavator stopped out to cover up the water line trench since I got the pipe through the wall last weekend. Spent way too much time out in the 90+ degree heat moving dirt with my trusty rake as we filled some of the low areas against the house walls where rain likes to collect. It's either a soaked swamp down there or a parched Hell. Maybe we'll have a nice fall this year. Maybe.

Had a landscaper come down last night to ballpark a price for spreading seed. He said $4k to $5k. We parted company. Waiting on another quote to come in. Hoping for something more reasonable or I'm calling in all my markers for free computer repair all these years in exchange for grass seed and straw spreading!!
Get ready everyone!
