Are You Awake?

I got up early and proceeded to wake everyone up pulling wood siding off the west end of the house, revealing a beautifully chiseled limestone wall.  The sound of screeching rusty nails isn’t quite as charming as hearing a rooster crow in the distance.

Fit for a King

Lara arranged for me to pick up a quality king-sized bed for free from a family with the provision that we deliver a single box spring to them in return.  Lara located one for $20, which I picked up and delivered to the former king bed owner.

Scales

Spent several hours during this period drafting up the measured rooms up at a scale of  1/4 “=1’.  I drafted up the 1.06-acre site at a scale of 1”=20’.

Pewwwweeeee!

Because of the size of the frig, I had to rip some of the frame off the outside laundry door to get it inside the house. The laundry is absolutely putrid and odoriferous from years of overflowing washing machines, etc.  Probably best to tear it of completely.  Measured some elevation points in the front yard and street right-of-way.  Purchased some red metal bunk beds for $75 at a garage sale in a nearby town.  Trying to be as frugal as possible in my expenditures so I love finding bargains!
