Well…slept all the way til 5:30 this morning and I am going to declare that a victory…and I don’t remember waking up once so maybe this is a trend that will get better and I may sleep all the way to 6 at some point…my hands are just so beat up from working around here that I may need to rest them some…but not until later…I have to try to chop out the last stump this morning before the fence guys get here but I’m not sure if they will take the abuse…especially my right thumb that has been swollen and aching but not so much this morning so I am going to give it a go and see….I did have to pay the last 5 grand on the roofing and windows yesterday but it was good to meet that milestone and see the progress that came with all the work here….not sure if I want to pat myself on the back for saving this place but looking back at where I started in July, a little tap is in order at least..I did get the stairs down to the basement cleaned yesterday and it looks pretty good after getting all the crap off them with a scrub brush…the water in the bucket was black and I still can’t understand why the idiot who was living here didn’t clean them at all…it only took about 45 minutes to take them from gross to shiny and you would think you’d want the place you’re living in to be clean…oh, well….I do have an errand to run to Aldi’s today and it will be the first one out on Alpine and I hope I don’t have the crazy traffic that Alpine sees normally…will try to hit it around 10 so there should be a lull by then….more later…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
