Has arrived!!! It arrived Tuesday morning, as promised (finally) so we got to work right away... Glenn our neighbour helped unpack and move the pieces. It's pretty light and compact, and so the hope was that it would go up quickly.
J needed some supplies so I zipped out to the hardware store with a list and he went back under the house to finish insulating the pipes.
I returned and he finished the insulating - finally - what a horrible horrible job that was. He then took out the window from the house to see what supplies he needs when he replaces it.
Once the other burning items were accomplished, he set about building the shed. 90% of it went up Tuesday. Today, Wednesday, he got an early start and put on the roof and doors. We now have a shed to store all our stuff in - Yahoo!!! He is off doing a hardware store run for supplies for the window and then that goes in today.
I am hanging with the girls... watching Sally play at the park. She is currently filling her shoes with rocks. Ruby is wiggling happily beside me. We have laundry going at the laundromat, which is across the street... who ever thought of that was definitely a mom!!
Sally seems to be doing ok and having fun
- today we went to a giant play park that had a gaggle of girls to play with and then the splash park - but she is growing weary of the waiting and wants to know when we are heading to Cape Breton. I don't blame her, we are ALL growing weary. Justin is working so hard doing horrible, physically demanding work trying to get the house in a state where the utilities won't be bonkers and Peggy (our Tennant for the year) will be comfy and warm. I am trying to keep Sally entertained and Ruby cold in the heat and warm in the AC... feeding everyone, sunscreen, water, hats... its been a lot. Our goal is to leave for Cape Breton Friday. I am going to try to do everything I can so we are ready to leave Friday morning... fingers crossed we don't have anything else pop up.
Sally and Ruby at the splash park!
