We rolled into our driveway Friday afternoon, glad to be home again, with no plans to travel again - at least until February. I managed to bring home a 'souvenir' from convention - a cold. Oh, joy!
Before starting to work on our place, Roger took time Friday afternoon and Saturday to work with Randy on doing some repair work on the exterior of the home place. Some siding to replace and then to paint. Still the back side and the trim to finish up, but the most of it is done.
Friday evening we took in a high school football game, and Sunday afternoon we enjoyed catching up with family at a birthday party for Ryan (a grand-nephew). So Monday morning, it was back to work on our never-ending renovation project - or so it seems. Our focus was on getting at least one room completed, and so we focused on the office/sewing room. A second coat of paint, then we (or I should say Roger) began the task of laying the wood floor. I'm the 'gofer' - which I guess every job needs one. Got it about half done and decided to let it set up overnight before tackling it again. So we switched our efforts to finishing the 'deconstruction' of the master bathroom, before calling it a day.
Russ called with some free tickets to the OU men's basketball, so off we went. Great seats, practically on the floor level. Turns out we were just a stone's throw away from Toby Keith, who is also a big OU fan.
Tuesday found us finishing up the floor and replacing all the trim, so we have now 'officially' finished one room! We are so pleased with the way it turned out, it just makes us more anxious to get it all done.
After supper last night I looked at Roger and said, "Now, what room are 'we' tackling tomorrow? :>) The other rooms that are getting wood flooring are not ready, so guess we'll take a break from floor work and perhaps do some texturing and painting, giving Roger's knees a break.
