We've done so much in the past 5 days that I think to try and fit it all in one entry would kind of spoil it. I've tried to keep a good photo journal and I'll have to spread it out by project
or something in the coming days and weeks. But I've had a couple days off and lots of help and I'm really pleased with the progress we've made.
I finally got my hands on the Padelford work truck today. I picked it up at around 11am and seriously ran around town with full loads until 7pm tonight. On top of that, I still have a huge list of truck-needed items to pick up in the next couple weeks.
First I stopped by my apartment and grabbed a few small pieces of furniture, came home and unloaded. I went to Menards again and got some sheets of plywood and 2x4's for my new kitchen sub-floor, as well as various measuring marking and cutting tools. Also picked up some spackling and sanding tools for all the walls that need to be painted (ALL the walls).
Went back dropped the stuff off and headed right back out to a friend's house to pick up some free furniture and stuff that I'll detail in my 'Look at all this free stuff I got' blog entry.
Dropped off again and ran down the street and grabbed a free mower from a buddy who also just bought a house right by mine. Came back and mowed the lawn for the first time, which was desperately needed.
Then went down to my Dad's house and picked up some tree-trimming tools and back up to the apartment building and loaded two refrigerators and delivered one to the house and the other up to Oakdale before returning the work truck at about 7.
I'm pretty happy with the day's accomplishments, without even really setting foot in the house.
So that's what I did today. I work the rest of the week(end) so maybe I'll have time to catch this blog up with all the work that's been done over the last week and get some of those pictures up.
In the meantime, here's a picture of Lil' Davey in the kichen...from the basement.
