He works on Sunday too!
This morning I woke up to a sick Mom and a sleepy niece. As I ran around trying to get ready for church I see the blue truck of the gutter and siding guy pull up. What's this I thought? He left something he needed? Nope! He started with the saw and the hammer while I was taking a shower. Thank goodness everyone was up and going to church around here, or just simply didn't mind the noise. But he had moved his little roadshow to the back of the house, so no one should have been bothered at all. Can you believe it? The guy works on Sundays! I went out with the family after church, dropped Mom's car that Ted and Jenny had been using while one of theirs was in the shop. Yup! Still sick Mom was. Then off to eat, when I got back, the man was still working. I decided I should wash my car and Moms. Then, there was still light and it was really nice out, so I started scraping the sidewalk of grass. Somehow, it looked relatively easy, but that's how stuff like this always starts, doesn't it? Two hours later, I was still scraping. Piles and piles of grass, weeds and Tennessee silt and mud. I tried filling in patches in the lawn, holes from having a pipe replaced in the front yard, just anything to get to a spot where I could stop! Finally, did, then washed off the sidewalks and walkways. The siding and gutter guy finally packed it in and said he would probably not be back until next week, as he was on a job he had promised well before mine and would have to get "on that" this week. No problem I said, do it when you are finished. He said he'd "get 'er done, don't you worry mam'". I believe him too! I don't know his name, but he is a hard worker, just like Josh. Speaking of which, he came by and we discussed french doors. He's ready to get on that! So maybe he can work on that until the siding and gutter guy comes back. In the meantime, I have the estimator coming from Lowe's to measure up for the gutting of the kitchen.....its all starting to move VERY fast! The house is starting to look more of what I envisioned.....so much to do.
