Good Morning CGs!

The problem with waking up early for work is that you usually wake up early when there's no work (unless you're Brad). So here I am. Can't really do anything around the house because the kids are sleeping, otherwise I'd be laying the rest of the floor. We got about 95% done yesterday. There were two interruptions where BIL had to leave so that set us back, then he left at 3:45 to go home and get ready for a party and I had to stop at 4:30 to get ready to go to my mom and dad's house. Sister and niece are in town so we went to visit for a bit. This is basically what it ended up as yesterday (had to put the bed in so RR#2 could sleep):

We will finish the last couple of rows (about 4) today along with the trim and base shoe. Then it's closet doors and furniture and it's complete. RR#1's room will be next, but that job will be worse because her furniture is harder to disassemble and move. Oh well.

I saw this light on tv:

http://www.eastwood.com/eastwood-light

Gets good reviews and a much better price that the $200 Monster light I have been pining for. I sent my buddy the link and he ordered it right away. One he gets his I'll check it out and most likely grab one.

How was everyone's weekend?

Hope everyone has a great day!

Matthew

Welcome to Spring everyone. Chilly here this morning temps in the mid 20's. Should be sunny and highs in the mid 40's.

The room looks real good Matt.

SUNNY AND COLD IN THE NATIONS THIS MORNING, FROSTY IN THE LOWLANDS. THE CHEROKEES WILL DISREGARD THE FROST AS LONG AS THE SUN SHINES :-)

I'M OFF TO IHOP FOR BREAKFAST, CHICKENFRIED STEAK AND EGGS.

Morning guys...Slept in this morning. I have a men's group meeting today, so will be leaving pretty soon for that. I was a cold mama this morning. 12 on the back deck. Supposed to warm up into the low 50's and the sun is shining. They are saying it will warm up through the week.

That was some funny sh!t, Gris. Matt the floor is looking good. What brand flooring is it....Bruce?

Howdy! Had a good time last night, Charley still has quite a voice, though I think he is slipping a bit (I believe he turned 78 the other day). He seemed to be enjoying himself, though. We had a pretty big crew, I think there were about 47 of us. I left a small donation at the casino.

Floor's looking good, Matt!

Great "sermon" vid - LMAO!

Enjoy the rest of your day, Gurus!

BTW, Matt - I was up at 6:30 yesterday and today. I will be making a bee-line for my nap chair this coming week to make up for it.

Sorry TB, I had to look at the box. It's called great lakes wood flooring. It's sold at Menard's and we've used it in all the other rooms in the house. Pretty good quality for prefinished wood.

Floor is done. Took longer than expected but we had multiple interruptions this weekend for family affairs. Everything is moved back in and we are happy with the results. Next month we will tackle the second bedroom.

And you ordered eggs? Surprised they arrived safely, after all...you can't put all your eggs with one basketcase.
