Still remodeling my house. We are getting the walls set up in the house. My husband showed me how to use the nailgun last night. I've been scared of it cause it makes a lot of noise. The bathroom is almost together, fixure wise. We got our waterheater. I'm excited about that. I'm going from a 10 gallon to 50 gallon heat. So long hot showers are in my future. Most of the plumbing is almost done. We have to do the wiring and then we are going to have someone come in and do the drywall for us. ( family member is doing that ) My husband will be out of town next week-end so I'm going to a co-workers and she's giving me some trees and plants. So I'll be doing some planting while hubby is out of town. My poor hubby has been trying to grow this little redbud tree. He put a stick next to it so no one would step on it. But I think it's died. So I'm getting him a couple of redbuds. One for each corner of the back yard. We still haven't gotten our windows and doors replaced yet. I keep telling Hubby we need to get that done before it gets cold. But I think I'm talking to air.

have a couple rolls of plastic handy in case weather hits before windows get installed. it sounds like you are having fun and that is wonderful to hear!!! redbuds are so beautiful, when they pop i know spring has sprung! claiming space is such an individual ritual, i'm glad you are keeping your sense of humor, it sure does help get us through the OMG's......

We have a wonderful sunroom built on the house. We have those windows already installed. They were special ordered. There are 4 large windows, 6 feet long and 4 feet wide, plus we are putting a glass door going outside from the room. I'm so execited about my sunroom. My project for this spring is to start my garden. Right now there's nothing there but grass. But I want a lot of flowers and a water figure in the garden. So I can sit in my sunroom and look out at the garden when I want to. I'm going to put a lot of pillows and comfy seats in there. Make my quiet space. SO looking forward to that.

The joyful times are wonderful. They over shadow the painful ones. Been planning ahead with future needs in the house. Easy door handles and light switches, no steps in the house, wide doorways.

That sun room sounds just wonderful. If I had one it would be hard to budge from it.

Good luck with the future plans.
