Rain, Rain, Go Away

While all of this rain has been great for some, it's really putting a kink in our plans.






Because of the rain, our siding guy got behind in his other jobs so he didn't get to our place this week. No siding means no drywall on my ceilings. No drywall on my ceilings means no insulation. No insulation means no no drywall on my walls. No siding also means no deck/porch frames. No frames means no decks/porches. No deck/porch means no stone. Got all of that?

Not that Dave and I weren't busy this week. We spent all Sunday, Monday night, Tuesday night, and Wednesday night running wires for an all-house stereo system we'll install eventually. We would have been out there finishing up Thursday night but I had to go ahead and get sick. Yep, I've been home for 2 whole days. I'm not sure that I have ever missed 2 days of work. Ever.

We were going to go tile shopping tomorrow, but I'm thinking spending a day at home sounds even better. Plus, it will give Dave a day to clean his grill (something pooped in our grill - yes, that's gross and no, we haven't used it since) and give me another day of rest. Sunday it will be back out to the house to finish up the stereo wiring.


This week wasn't a complete loss though. The electricians finished up all of their wiring. That's the nice and orderly white and yellow wires you see above. The pink and grey pile is our messy pile. I'm completely amazed by how much wiring goes into one house. Guess I've never given a thought to what's behind each light switch.

We did get to see our other new neighbors while we were working.


I'm not sure I'll ever grow tired of watching the animals from my back deck.
