Painting

My man and I have been painting all week. painting the huge additions added to our home. You don't know how big they really are until you paint them. And we only have one almost done. But since I'm the painter it's OK for me as the painting contractor to use the bathroom:+) The kitchen is finally done. So I have been cooking, but not as much as I would like because I'm painting. Why don't they make a paint that evaporates when it hits the floor or your body? Each day you can tell what color is on the wall because it is on us. Thank heaven for water based paint or we would be too colorful to go out in public. I will be glad when this is all done. June 1st is our deadline. also this week there were two big fires in lower Delaware. on the same night. the local watering hole down at the docks was burned to the ground. It's so sad. i don't know where I'm going to go for watering now.

Drywall

So today the drywall men come. A whole van of them and only one speaks english. The guy who owns the company comes along and sets everything up with the foreman, the only one who speaks english. They unload all their stuff out of the van: including a microwave. Yes a mircowave to cook all the lunches. During lunch "The Body gets a smell of their lunches and goes after the one guys sandwich. He has to run away and up on to the van to keep his sandwich out of "the body's" hungry jaws. They start yelling for Jack, because I'm out shopping. So what does Jack do, he runs for the camera to take a picture of how "the boby" has the mexican guy on the van trying to get his lunch. They did offer to give her their beans but Jack said no. They were fast, all done hanging drywall in 5 hours. And yes while I was gone Jack said they used the bathroom. So again I had to clean the bathroom because of the construction guys. And these guys used all the Chairman so I know what they were doing:+(

Sunny Day

Today the sun is so bright. It is melting all the snow. They cancelled school today. Because of a little snow. Today A/C Adam is back. He is working right outside the window were the computer is. I don't think he knows that I'm in here because he is using several four letter words while preforming his job:+) He also of course had to use the restroom today. This is the first time since the job johnny is gone that he asked to use it. Now I really like Adam, but, why don't people turn on the fan and spray when they are done using any bathroom. I have the spray sitting right next to the toliet. And the fan is right on the wall. All you have to do is turn it on. Do people not smell the air they create in the bathroom? The Body was outside today running in the snow and the mud. She loves it. Hopefully this mess of snow and mud will be gone by the weekend and spring will be on it's way. It is suppose to be in the 50's this weekend. It's time for spring I saw a robin last week.

Construction continues

Well the shell of the additions is complete. All of my favorite construction guys are gone. Chicken George, Roofer Bob,Pick-up boy Phil, Chef Sasha, Eagle Bob, Brother John, and Roman blue eyes. I gave them all nick names so I could remember them better. Gone also is the Job Johnny. Now we have A/C Adam here. There were two plumbers here also, I didn't like them at all. They always had to use the bathroom. The house bathroom because remember the job johnny is gone. It was some guy and his dad who looked like he should have been on a America's Most Wanted. But they are also gone. Today the gas men came to bury the gas tank, and of course they cut the cable wire. Also today I helped my man cut the insulation to the correct lenghth 8ft. And then I stuffed all in the walls for him while he stapled it down. But of course I put them all in the same way with the printing correct. Now if anyone ever rips out the walls they will say, "wow someone really love their job they put all the printing the same way." It is also snowing here today in southren DE. And the children are getting home early from school. It is only snowing 1 -4 inches but here they think it is a lot.
