Bath

The bathroom renovation has started and is in full swing.  Overall things have been going pretty smooth.  I was hoping for more help on demolition weekend but a few people flaked out.  My buddy Mike Branstrom was there and ready to work.  Could not have done it with out Bricks and his bag of tricks.  He got the majority of the walls framed up after we ripped everything out.  We were definitely tired that weekend.  After that things progressed well.  Electrical installed, plumbing installed, new insulation with a vapor barrier.  My dad and Ron got the plumbing for the toilet relocated.  It went pretty good.  I thought we would have had many more issues, but we didn't with that.  It is mounted temporarily for now, but it really helps for all of Darlene's late night bathroom trips.
Most of the drywall went up this weekend.  Ron was busting it out yesterday while I was at work.  Just have to get the tub drain to stop leaking and then it is mud time!  Hoping to get it all done by the end of the month!

Schooled

As many of you know I have been going back to school for my IT-Networking degree from MSTC in Stevens Point.  I am in my 3rd semester.  I have 2 semesters left.  I will be doing another full time semester this next spring.  I did full time last spring and it was rough.  Hopefully it won't kill me like last semester did.  The plan is that I will graduate next December.  There have been some rough spots, but I made it through.  I am looking forward to finishing up this semester and getting started with the next one.  I will hopefully be doing my internship soon and I am excited to get some on the job experience. I am also looking forward to getting done with the semester so that I have more time to do work on the house.  We plan on doing most of the work on the back bedroom the first/second weekend in January, when I am on winter break.  And then the plan is to work on the bathroom over spring break. (the end of March)   The G ...

First of all thank you to everyone that prayed for us last week while Darlene had her surgery.  Everything went great.  Darlene is doing well.  Still a little sore sometimes, but hopefully on the fast track of recovering!  Last time it was arthroscopic procedure.  This time it was actually an incision.  So there is more healing time needed now. The hardest thing now is Darlene being around the kids when she can't pick them up for a few weeks yet.  It is killing her that she can't pick up an hold her babies.  She does as much as she can, bathing, changing, feeding.  So she is at least getting some good time with them.  But it isn't the same.  She plans on being able to persuade the Dr. when she goes in for her check up to ease up on the lifting restrictions.  Nothing over 10lbs currently.  Violet is at 15lbs and Ryan at 18lbs!  They get so big, so fast.
