Getting There…Slowly

Still at it.  In the last video you saw that our water line from the road to the house ruptured.  Well, that was a mess that ended up being almost twice the estimate!  And took two weeks to complete. Two weeks of mooching water from my neighbor. Yikes…  Did you know that you can hook up your hose to another house and feed your house with it? Pretty cool…except you get that nice rubber water flavor.

Well, there were lots of ups and downs, but in the end we have one room completely finished, and our bedroom is %90 done.  I got a funny story about my kids to share.

Now these three little goofballs are the cause about half of the renovations.  Just in the last week we have three broken windows, a flood, and the cat was thrown out the window.  (good thing we have a porch roof for him to land on) Anyway, the day that the drywall was finished in the dining room, the kids intentionally overflowed the bathroom sink…which ran through the holes in the floor…and onto the back of the new drywall…then THROUGH the new drywall. Oh how I lllloo….lllloooo….okay…I love those kids. I really do, but man they are crazy. Who did they get that from? Sheesh.
