JENNIE is her name o

It’s just 7:30 a.m. and Bill is already out in the garage working! At this rate he is going to have everything done this week.
Should I change the picture on the top of the blog? Will that make Alfie mad? Also have to come up with a name for this one. I kind of keep thinking “Jennie” – I had an aunt named Jennie and she was a blast. Always ready for any new adventure – any where, any time, any place. Yep I think that might be it. Bill agrees - Jennie it is.
Well work is moving right along in Jennie. She has never had so much attention.
The cupboard in the bedroom above the bed is done except for trimming it out. Bill says none of the walls are straight. So what’s new?

The bedroom wall has been painted, but think it might need a second coat. That is our “accent wall” more like accident wall – the roof had leaked and damaged the wall board.

Before painting - just primed

The cupboard (excuse me - linen closet) and two of the of the four new towel racks are up in the bathroom
The entertainment center is about 1/3rd the way done. Still needs enclosing on the sides and TV and DVD and satellite stuff installed.
The flooring is down but still needs some metal strips.
The Driver hard at work.
So as you can see busy, busy, busy. Tomorrow in to town to return not needed stuff and see if we can find a small swivel chair and side table for where the sofa was.
At least the weather is nice now. Not too hot and not humid thank goodness.
Still lots to do. He wants to line all the cupboards with foam backed carpet (really cuts down on noise. Add a shelf in one of the big cupboards in the living area. Then put a shelf in each closet in the bedroom. Thinking about putting the little glass tiles on the wall by the stove. That’s still in the thinking stage though.

And what have I been doing? STAYING OUT OF THE WAY! The lady who painted the house a couple of months ago is helping out a lot. She put down the floor and painted the wall. I did do something - ordered stuff for bed room, sheets, quilt, pillow covers and matching shower curtain. So that's the progress so far. Quite a bit considering we've only had her five days.
