Wasn't Thanksgiving great this year? It sure was for our family. We gave lots of thanks for Merle's new job. By the way, he had to be at the store at 2 am on Black Friday, and he worked until 6 pm that evening. I can't even count how many hours that was!!
You will be so glad to know that we are almost done with the remodel, and I can't wait for yall to see it. It's going to be the nicest room in the house--do you see the irony in that? It doesn't seem right that the nicest room be the bathroom! I was so surprised that dad and my bro Matt came over today to help finish up. Dad painted the second coat and bro did all of the caulking and taped everything off so that I could do the trim. I honestly had never painted until today, and it is my new favorite hobby! I carried my big ole' gallon of paint into the kitchen and painted the windowsills. I promise they needed it; I wasn't really just looking for something else to make look new! I think mom and I found all the decorative stuff we need to complete the look, so the finishing touches should be done by tomorrow. Let me know when you're coming over to check it out!!
Well, I need to go start another load of laundry, so I'll catch you cats later!!
