2009 Sep 1 - (weekend) - 1879 Farmhouse and insulation pickup

Friday Sep 1, 2009

Past time for bed
.

I worked today at the bank (Quality Control). Then went with Mom and dad to pick up 500 square feet of insulation for the farmhouse. Looks like a long holiday weekend will be a work weekend. (again).

Dressed in the monkey suit today as we were working to replace the insulation we'd removed 2 weekends ago. This insulation was placed in the front bedroom, living room, den and small bedroom. It was about 500 square feet total. Although I was tired and a bit itchy after putting in the pink insulation, it was nothing like taking the insulation out. I have truly never been so close to just dropping on the floor and sleeping. I didn't think I'd make it home to get a shower.

Mom and I are an amazing team. We work so hard on this house. I'll say "Mom, why don't you take a break". She says "I will in a while when you decide to take a break". We'd work for hours like that. The house still has areas that smell funky and old and yucky. One place in the front closet. A fresh coat of paint will change that though. We'll be back tomorrow to do some more work. Luckily I will get Monday off to recuperate.
