The home stretch

Well, after months and months of crazy renos, I can see the end. Jason and I have been working tirelessly for the last couple of weeks. I think I've even developed some muscle :-) The carpet for the basement is coming on Friday and windows were installed today! There is way too much to list what we have been doing to get ready, but it involved lots of drywall, putty and painting. Oh, and lots and lots and lots and lots of dust!!

On another note, I am greatly enjoying our yard. It is a lot bigger than our last place and therfore a lot more work to keep up with. We planted a big garden full of 3 long rows of corn! We have peas and beans which are ready to pick and tomatoes are coming along. As strange as it seems, I really don't mind weeding my garden and flower beds. There is something satisfying about getting rid of the unwanted and seeing results immediately. There are many, many weeds.
I can hardly wait for the carpet... you won't believe the transformation....
