Home Projects

Saturday didn't go exactly as Brent planned. His agenda included: going to the furniture store to buy and pick up the new chair, going by Lowe's to buy 2 new doors and install them in the same day. Sounded good on paper but ended up being impossible. The chair was out of stock. It should be in later this week so another trip to Calera it is. The first door (the back door) did not fit the frame. He and his dad ended up knocking the entire frame out of the wall. I came home from shopping and we had a huge hole in our house. 6 hours later they were able to install a new frame and door. Now all we have to do is sand the sheetrock and touch up the paint. Needless to say door #2 (a new glass storm door for the front) is still in the box in the garage. Hopefully it will be up soon. I am so thankful Brent has his dad to help with those projects. It's best for me to be out the house while they are working. I get to wound up seeing the "work-in-progress". I'm definitely a "show me the results" kind of person. Oh well, I need to learn to be more patient. Sometime in the last 24 hours I caught the bug that Brent had last week. I slept all day after we got home from the nursing home. I know a sick person shouldn't go but I really wanted to visit Brent's grandmother. I promise I did not breath on anyone. I'll probably be an insomniac tonight. I hope I feel good enough to go to work tomorrow. Hopefully day 2 of my Z pack and a dose of Robitussin will do the trick.
