We are not doing anything to the den right now. We are going to use it for the storage room. Where we will be putting all the boxes there and going through them. We have already started taking some clothes and boxes down to Walkertown. We Are So Ready To Be Moved And Settled. Dave is getting a rental truck Friday morning. We are going to be moving Friday, Saturday and Monday. Thank goodness for Memorial Day weekend. I want to thank the ones that have said that they would help us this weekend. They will never know how important they are to us. Helping us when we need them - THANKS!!!!


 
So I need to go do more packing, packing, packing, packing, etc.
PLEASE REMEMBER MOM MARGARET - SHE IS DEALING WITH SOME HEALTH ISSUES THAT ARE REALLY SERIOUS.
Until later my dear friends,

Days 36 and 37

Well folks, same ole same ole.  Here is where we stand with the Walkertown house.  Mom's bedroom and bathroom is DONE. The living room has a fireplace that is hidden behind a wall.  Didn't know what to do about opening it back up or cover with bead board.  As for now, we are going to cover it up.  If we want to open it later, we will.  So we got to put the bead board up, but other than that; we are DONE.  The hall is DONE.  The dining room in DONE.  The master bedroom and my closet is DONE.  The kitchen is DONE. The pantry is DONE.  If God is willing, we will start to sand and strip the hardwood floors in Mom's room, dining room, hall and master bedroom this weekend.  Dave is working after work on the floor in the laundry room and putting bead board up in there.  Mom and I are starting to collect boxes from the ABC store.  So our garage in Rural Hall is getting a bit busy looking with them.  Looks like we need to go to the AA meeting.  :)  We are now hoping to move in around Dave's birthday, May 21st.  That is where we are at this week.  CAN'T WAIT TO MOVE.  Hang on a bit longer, we are almost DONE.  Until later...
