Five days before the end of the month, and life hasn't gotten any calmer. We should have been living in the house by now, but like I have said before, this isn't on my timetable. If you can pray, please be specific about your prayers for the sewer line to be connected so the next steps can happen.
This past Thursday I was blessed by Corrina, with the help of getting the house cleaned up to be ready for primer. It was a good day and we both got quite the workout. Saturday we started by cutting the "mud" from around the outlets and switches, then started priming of the walls and ceilings. A few workers, made quick work. Lunch was provided by the Banks family, and Tammy brought something down for Jesse and I to eat, Thank you all! I had several friends stop by to visit and take a peak around, thanks Brenda for delivering more fans and lights. Because of Brenda, I will have ceiling fans in all three bedrooms & the living room.

Today we were blessed by Jeanne's family. We received a sofa, table & chairs, coffee table, tv/entertainment center, full size mattress and box springs, 2 desks, and an office chair. They also helped move all the items, truly overwhelmed by kindness. Ken & Pat, Sean & Renie & Zayden, Paul & Jim & Jeanne all helped with the moving of the items. I love my friends.
