Little Jobs

We have had a huge slow down in the building process because my parents have moved from the family farm to town. That has taken all of our weekends.

Bill has just been doing little jobs he can do by himself.  One of those jobs was to hang a holder for all of our hats, scarves and gloves. Have to have enough for us and the grand kids for when they come sledding. This is an over the door hanger we may have a storage area for them when the building is finished so we didn't want to do anything permanent right now. I didn't want to see the metal hanging over the door; I can be such a bratty snob at times. Bill does everything he can to make me happy, he learned this from my Daddy who is that way with my Mom. He cut the metal part off that would have be seen on the front of the door and then screwed the metal into the top of the door. Now we have a place for what we need but it isn't obtrusive.


Another job was to actually wire the front column lights. We had put the fixtures up last fall. But not having made the decision on what type of porch lights we would be using, pendant or sconces, he couldn't run the wires. That decision has been made so he can now run the wiring. Came home from our annual Girls Weekend and he had been busy. We have switches and we have wire. The boxes came from my Daddy's workshop. We found all kinds of little building things in his 62 year accumulation of stuff.
 We have power!!!

So excited that we had to take a drive to see what it looked like from the road. Very blurry picture because it was very dark out except for our interior truck lights and our working front column lights.
