Progress…progress….

Well we are making progress on the house. We got all the water from the gutters running away from the house. We got all the corners downstairs sealed so they wouldn’t leak anymore. N has got his Broncos room mostly painted…working on the trim, etc now. We have the downstairs bathroom mostly painted (I have a little to finish before we can do the floor). Figured out how to solve the throne problem in the upstairs bathroom – we are leaving the one downstairs as is for now. We are starting to move boxes into the storage areas (since the water problem is solved).

We still have to strip wallpaper, paint and do the floor in the upstairs bathroom, tile the floor in the downstairs bathroom, paint the floor in the basement, finish the trim in the basement, seal the patio, finish the little pond/fountain, seal the outside patio block, put up more lattice work, clean off the bar and get it into the basement, finish it off, and of course clean the house spotlessly.  We have 92 days till the wedding….probably like 87 until N’s parents and my mom start arriving…so it can be done.  Just hard with both of us working full time and having to come up with money for all of it.  And don’t forget the normal work that has to be done like mowing the yard (at least once a week with all this rain), weedeating, feeding chickens and fixing fence.  Oh yeah…forgot that we still need to fence off part of the field still.

I am making myself work hours on the weekends and reserving that money strictly for house stuff.  Mom sent me the money to buy my dress.  She ordered the material we are making the veil out of.   I have it in the budget to order invitations next week.  It will be another couple weeks before I order rings probably…now that I have N’s ring size.

So getting excited but a little frazzled with all that still has to be done.  This whole getting married at the farm things is nerve wracking lol.  If course we would still have had to do all this stuff anyway before the parents came back so it’s all good motivation to get it done sooner.
