Keeping At It

Being our first weekend back, both Harry and I wanted to keep up our momentum by getting something done. Harry started off the day by going to the Agway and ordering our pellets for next winter. We made one change though – we only ordered one ton! We are trying to decrease our supply, since we always have some left over. This year we have about a ton and a half left, so we are hoping that we will use up the excess next year. We don’t want to have a lot of bags of pellets sitting around in the garage when it is time to start having people walk through.

After Harry got back from ordering the pellets and running a couple other errands, he got busy working on the trim.

He had to sand it and apply two coats of stain.

It actually dried quickly enough that he could start putting it in today, finishing the dining room and kitchen.

The only piece still needed is the small area behind the couch in the living room.

Meanwhile, when I got home from work, I got back to business in the guest room.

Ariel is making sure I don’t get rid of anything valuable.

All done – this dresser will go out when Harry does this floor sometime in the next few weeks, not to return!

Just a few things left in the closet…

Done for the day! Smile
