We are never going to get done!

I haven't had time to blog this week and I have some really great things to share. We have been working on our Bathroom every night after work until at least 9 or 10. Then we clean up, eat something fast and head for bed. We still have so much to do that there is no way we can get done before the kids get here for our nine weeks on Friday. We even took a vacation day today. I don't know what I was thinking. I felt like we should have everything almost done but I didn't plan for things like letting everything dry. . . Like everything we do, we have had several set backs. For starters we waited for 2 weeks to get an estimate for a new window. Just to find out a week later that it would take about a month to get the window in. We didn't have a month to wait for just that part. Alot of things couldn't be done until that was done. We got lucky and someone had special ordered a window at Home Depot and didn't pick it up. It fit what we needed and got it for a discount. Thank goodness this project is costing a small fortune. Scott was able to fix the bad boards and put the window in. He has turned into quite the handyman! Scott also decided on plaster for the walls. I ended up plastering with a 2 inch putty knife that took 3 nights but I think it's going to look really cool. If not I'm going to be really upset. I think the demo at Home Depot they used a 8 or 10 inch putty tool. What on earth was I thinking. . . .
