DAY 12


Allen got the stairs stained.  Now we have to get upstairs by way of the back door.  He will varnish tomorrow.  It was pretty warm again today, but gets cold again tonight.  It even rained a little today.  I went to the Y this afternoon and worked out about 40 minutes and have an appointment Friday morning to learn about the other machines besides the treadmill and will get my workout plan.  I will be fit as a fiddle.  Ha.

I know its sometimes hard to find the motivation to go work out. I was wondering if it would be helpful to have a reason to go. And wondered if maybe taking Abby to swimming lessons & working out while she swims would be a good motivator?! I have to have another reason to go...or I don't.

The stairs look amazing!

The stairs look great! Looks like he is close to being done!

I am impressed that you are starting a routine at the Y - I agree with Sara - I would need a motivator or I probably wouldn't go! Keep us informed on your progress!

I tried the cake receipe you sent a few weeks ago (with the lemon pudding) - it was wonderful (but a lot of cake for just two people). I put fruit on top - yum!

Thanks! We can envision the end of the project. Now Brian will be painting some walls downstairs and we will be adding a Uppercase Living decal saying "It is so good to be HOME".

The secret to having recipes that are too big for 2 people is to have a family of 8 living a few blocks away!!

Barb: Did your cake make a mess in your oven, like Dad's did? :)

How's your job?

I just read your message Sara - it didn't make a mess in the oven - I guess we got lucky!

I love my new job!! I actually leave on time now and don't think about work when I get home. I miss counseling the dental hygiene applicants, but I do not miss my old boss!

My new boss is from England and is a periodontist - just like Carl! He is very nice!
