Day 4

This is the first day hubby has off since he bought that poor house that needs someone to love it.  Luckily he's married to me.  You know - because I am so adventuresome and on this ambitious project - I am all in!  For today at least.  The enormity of it all sometimes hits me and turns me into a ball of nerves.  I know, I know, they make a pill for that. :)

We have no idea yet what we are going to do to the house.  The only things we know for certain are:

#1-we need a Sam's Club helping of trash bags (or a match)

#2-we need to secure the house because we don't have any keys and a majority of the windows are broken

#3-that bad boy needs dried-in yesterday (ie-new roof)

#4-we absolutely have to have respirators

#5-we just might be a little bit crazy

Just to be doing something, we use a few dozen trash bags to start packing trash and Goodwill donations.  (I hope there are some old ladies shopping Goodwill for polyester pants in every color of the rainbow).  We ran out of trash bags before we even make a dent in the first room. Encouraging!

We couldn't get the front door open any further.  Where's my shovel?

Heaven help us.
