This week felt eternal.
Nothing seemed to move in the basement... Oh, things were happening. Doors and windows were ordered, new frames put up, a lot of electrical line was run and a little plumbing was set. Friday I finally got my jackhammering, which I've been wanting to hear all week. Nothing transformative though and I crave transformation. I'm not big on patience right now.
Where the basement felt like it moved slowly, the shed popped up right up. Even with two days of massive rains, the guys put it together just over 2.5 days. It still needs either stain or paint and a new lock on the door (because the current one almost resulted in a WeeE locking both of us in the shed). The neighbors don't seem annoyed and, in fact, got the builder's card for themselves. Now we can shuffle the last of our stuff out of the basement...

Come the summer, this will be a great garden shed/play house. Woot! I have a shed. I feel so grown up!
Great shed! Where did you get it? When we were in HH, we bought a totally aesthetically inappropriate barn like thing. But then later all the cool sheds came out...
I can't wait for the news! Oh and regarding the crib bunk...can you fill the bottom with diapers and what not so she sees it isn't for sleeping? I know, "yeah, right!" Hi to Mona!
Best,
Jen
