All the drywall was taken down and Shane got everything wired!
While Shane worked on wiring Scott started getting the tile floor in my upstairs bathroom...yippy that is almost done! and he has started destruction of the main floor bathroom.
I must share some very sad news though. I am loosing my office. This summer has proven that the boys need to have separate rooms. I must have a way to sent them each to different areas when I just can take their fighting anymore. So hopefully before the end of the summer I can move my desk back to the kitchen, get all my items back into boxes in the basement and start moving Sky into his new bedroom.

A look at the before...
So the windows are in and we have emptied the living room and are ready to start the work! Here is my current living room and dining room...only thing we have done so far is Shane refinished the floor when we first bought the house.
Soon all my windows in this room will be replaced and I will have screens to keep the flies out! We are even replacing the sliding glass door!
Now the bathroom is not totally done just yet but the forecast has no rain for a while so we are hoping to get the drywall taken down and the walls insulated and then re-drywalled as fast as possible. Everything is sitting outside under a tarp and on the back deck for now...please no rain!
I have to start thinking about paint colors and new light fixtures!!!

Here is the new front door. Well, it was changed last fall. |

I tried to go around the room and give every section. This is of course the front door and the large front window. |

This is the corner of the house by my parents 5th wheel. The dark paneling is going! |

Here is our sad fireplace that will also be getting a face lift but probably not this year. |

This is the door to Shane's office that we finished up last summer. |

The china hutch Pam gave me will really look nice when the paneling is gone! |

This is my giant sliding door that has a wonderful view of our property. And the beautiful deck Shane fixed up when we first bought the house. |

Here is the doorway to the kitchen. |

Here is the hall, the end is the bathroom and on the right is the stairs going up then the door to the basement stairs and in the corner is my office. |

Here we are back around to the front doorway. |
Soon all my windows in this room will be replaced and I will have screens to keep the flies out! We are even replacing the sliding glass door!

Can you see the sag in the ceiling? Won't be sad to loose that! But I will miss my water feature a bit. I love waterfalls just not running down the walls of my living room. |

Total Jerk...
My oldest son has become a complete and total JERK!!!
He expects everyone to wait on him and he yells orders and then gets mad if we don't jump!!!
I do not know what to do about this. We wanted to go camping but can't until he is up and walking around on his own. Maybe one of us should just stay home with Sky and the other can take Bray camping. I am sick of going out of my way to accommodate Sky when he is not even trying to get better at this point. He likes laying around not having to do any chores.
I am very frustrated! Everyone's summer is being ruined!
