Changes, changes

Things have been pretty exciting around our house lately. Spring is finally here so we are actually making some progress on our house. The mortgage business is keeping me super busy right now, so that's my big excuse for not keeping up on my blogging.

The biggest thing happening right now is that Dana decided to quit the job he's worked at for the past 11 1/2 years. Wow! He is now the proud half owner of a countertop fabrication/construction business. Quite a big change for him, but I think it is really a great move for him. This will give him more flexibility with his time, so I'm crossing my fingers for more work on the house this summer! His partner in the business is our friend Leonard, who you've read about in this blog. The guys work absolutely great together and they both have the same work ethic, which is a big plus! Hopefully I'll get to post some pictures of their work in the not so distant future, although I think it will be quite a while before I get countertops in my kitchen and bathrooms...

The last couple of weekends have been fairly productive for our little house. The guys have the downstairs interior walls just about completed. There is quite a bit of extra work that goes into building those walls. They have to be built to absorb the shrinkage of the logs, so they basically have to be sliding walls. I think the walls will be ignored again for a while, since the weather is changing a little bit for the better, we'll be back to working outside again.
