So I started my new assignment at work which requires me to work nights 5p-5a. It is an awesome new assignment that puts me right into the mix of criminal investigations, interviewing suspects, taking statements, putting away bad guys, and letting the innocent go. It also allowed me to have a lot of time to work at the house during the day.
The biggest thing we were up to this week was taking bids from plumbers and electricians. Matt sent out the plans last week and set up the interviews and I stuck around the house to meet with the bidders. I saw two plumbers including a new company we haven’t worked with before and our trusted electrician from the Rice house.
While I was waiting around I painted the trim in the office (white) and covered up the hideous pink in the office closet with white. It took two coats, but everything looks real sharp and now the office is well along to being finished. All it needs is the quarter-round around the base board. Liz is turning the closet into an a craft corner for her sewing machine and jewelry making. We might also move in a chair and bookshelves to make a nice little library for reading. (more…)
