THINGS ARE A-CHANGING

We've told everyone that we want to get some work done on our house before we leave it sitting for eighteen months and we've gotten a start. First we started with the garage:

My pictures didn't turn out too well. This is pantry with new shelves and old food thrown out. What a job!

This is the workbench area which really looks great especially since it's the workshop. I didn't take a picture of the other shed outside which Dad has cleaned up as well.

This next picture was taken at 11:30 last night because I wanted you to see our snow and the bright lights on the Community Hall. They were installed for liability purposes but everyone is complaining about them. They are very bright. I love it because they serve as a night light in our house, but David is really upset because they shine right in his room.

Now the final one is of the family room. Please note that the family room looks like it did on the night of Julirae's graduation so many years ago! Thanks to suggestions from Greg, our Christmas entourage (David, Jaime & Julirae), we're looking at some new and startling (for us old folks) changes for the room. You'll also notice that the TV and chair are still in the room. That's because that TV is the recording TV and the Nintendo TV which is also why the chair is still there!



We'll keep you posted as the work progresses. I'm excited, but we'll see if the two of us can get this done together. I tell Dad he's a "bossy" boss.

The garage looks great. As well as the family room is going to look great. I am actually sitting here in my office at the house waiting for the countertop installers to show up. hoping by the end of next week our kitchen remodel will be done.
