I really don't know how Extreme Makeover does it in 1 week. Rob and Leslie's future neighbor here told me today that I needed to change my address as I have been practically living in their future home. The carpenters and plumber finished today and the drywall goes up tomorrow. Amy and I have the 3 bedrooms and bathroom 99% done. We put in new wiring and a new breaker panel and are switching out the existing receptacles and switches to nice new ones so we have a lot of the electrical circuits shut off which includes the AC. It has been so hot in there as we work. Today Amy was in the bathroom painting and sweating and I heard her saying to herself "I love my sister,I love my sister". I guess she was trying to convince herself that there was a reason for the "blood ,sweat and tears". As I sit and type my fingers are a mixture of white, blue, plum and cafe something or the other paint. I haven't had my shower yet tonight. I do have to say that Les has picked out some really cool colors.I'll post some pics. Paige and Heidi have been sick the past couple days with upper respiratory. They stayed with their Mama Brenda today so Amy could help me. Bob and Cory worked at the house all day today too. They finished the wiring and installed the new insulation. We put new recessed can lights in the kitchen and Cory had the honor of spending some time in the attic which was must have been about 200 degrees. I climbed up the ladder to do something for him and it was like sticking your head in an oven. BUT!!!! I am so happy that in a week they will be here so all the STRESS and hard work is more then worth it. Amy and I did tell Les that she owed us a week at a spa. Well it is 9PM and I don't have payroll done yet and need a shower so I will be signing off for now. In case you wonder the plum room is Brookes and Cafe a la something?? is ROb and Leslies.Love to all.
