Deuteronomy 11:18-19

18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 19 Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Living Room...Ah We Have Missed You!


What an amazing amount of space! Yay! The walls are not cured yet so nothing can touch them yet but all the furniture is back ABOUT where it was. Wether it will stay there or not is still a bit up in the air. But the stucco mess is done and gone and while the floor is very much less then perfectly clean of stucco it's swept up and mostly clean ;) 

Papa cranked the music up and we headed outside to see how sound proof the house is now, it was not at all before the stucco!, and we were quite surprised at the difference! Yay! Papa said a lot of sound went thru the top window frame so when that window goes in and the outside stucco it should be even more sound proof. He also grabbed his guitar and tried out the acoustics. It sounds better to me but what do I know about it ;) 

Papa still has some wiring to do after a few more curing days have past. There will be lights in the boxes above the windows and plugs around the bottom, but he's got the speakers all set up and the clock, printer and computer. 

The floor still has quite a bit of stucco mess but we will slowly get it all off. T enjoyed playing on the rug for a bit before lunch which is something he's been missing as there just wasn't a good place for him before. 

We cleaned all the toys out of the little kids room and they live in the living room again! Yay for being able to see the kids as they play again. The books will wait for a bit. I've got to find a way to store them yet. We will slowly get it all together and organized. The plan for the week is to slowly get everything out of the kids rooms that belong in the living room and then clean the kids rooms so we can start our new school year with a clean organized space.

 Papa goes back to work tomorrow, full time, so building will be relegated to evenings and weekends. He wants to get the top window in and the first coat of stucco on the outside before the weather gets too cold and then work on little projects all thru the fall and winter.
