I had been working hard to get the house ready for dinner guest..but they canceled this morning. but Ben and Melinda are coming instead. We have painted every room now except my office. I am going to keep it the off white color...looks like it has been painted recently. We painted the Master bedroom the last few days, but I am not too happy with the color. It is OK, but looks a little like lime/yellow...very light and that is Ok because of the lack of light. I am not going to paint the Master bath the same color...I will look for another color...maybe a dark beige...I don't know. We really need solar tubes in the kitchen...it is so dark, that the night light stays on in the daytime. Don has been working the last couple of days, so maybe we will be able to get solar tube. We only need 1 I think. That's it for today....no words today...I don't know why...later

Is it Feb.???

I can't believe it is February already. And the 5th no less. I am not very good at this blog thing. I feel like I don't have a lot to do but for some reason, I don't seem to be able to blog everyday like you are suppose to. OH well.

Don is not working hardly at all....he went to a meeting last Monday for 2 hours and that is it for this week. He doesn't know when he will work again.

It has been good that he is home as far as the house is concerned. We only have the Master Bedroom and Bath to paint. We hope to have our new dishwasher installed next week. Then we should be pretty much done with the inside. At some point, money allowing, we want to put a Solar Tube in the kitchen. It is very dark because the windows are on the small side and we have many tall trees in the back of the house...actually...all around the house...we love it. But it does make it dark. We have 2 carports. We are planning on putting sides on the 1 carport that has a regular roof on it. It has electricity and concrete pad and will make a garage pretty easily. We will do that when the weather gets better/dry. After that...we will only have little things. there is a lot of landscaping already. More than we had at the other house. I think it will be really pretty in the spring. We will have to move our chickens, because they are eating our plants already and they will ruin all the new plants as they come up for spring. So, they need to be moved to the lower section of our property. They like it there already, but I am concerned that a predator will get them that far away from us....oh well...we will see.

That's it for today...I will try to write more regularly.
