New View—Day 45




I guess you can see why we call this the sunroom, though really a porch.  Our floor layer arrived bright and early and got right to work.  He was very efficient and worked quickly.  I "think" that all the floors would have been finished...IF...they had ordered enough!  His first conclusion, when I showed him the rooms that were getting new floor, was that we didn't have enough.  And, he was right.  He had to order three more boxes!  The floor order won't be here till probably next Wednesday.  He did finish sunporch, laundry room, and downstairs bathroom...so three steps (rooms) closer!  We continue to be very happy with this floor.

This morning I prepared a dry rub for a rack of ribs.  I used the convection oven...still learning cooked it part of the time in the baking mode instead of roasting mode...one of these days I'll have the ovens figured out.  The ribs turned out well despite cooking them in wrong mode for a while.  

After lunch I got busy putting things back into the sunroom and laundry room.  I decided that I 
needed to wash the Windows before putting everything back.  Got that job done and then swept and vacuumed new floors and then wet mopped all the new floors including the kitchen.  Nice clean floors.  Figured that it would be a while till workers walked through...wrong!  Toward the end of the afternoon, the electrician showed up.  He figured out what needs to be done to fix the electrical problem.  He will be back tomorrow. 

Woody ran an errand for Nathan and Graham—went to the Post Office to mail a couple packages for them.  

We're settling for the evening watching Master Chef.  I'm more than ready to put my feet up tonight.  It has been a busy day! Lot's accomplished, though.
