And another room done

Today we completed the remodel of the mud porch/ new home office. This was a bit of a spur of the moment home improvement. My son-in-law was home sick on Monday so the kids stayed home with him. We quick made a list and ran to get supplies. The layout was planned so all we needed was exact measurements and a supply list and we were out of the house in an hour. Weather was fairly nice on the way there but by the time we were heading home the winds had picked up and the temperature was dropping. Made it home and unloaded. Tuesday Brian was also home with the kids so we emptied our new spot and started constructing! As of this evening we are pretty much settled in. I just have to make curtains.  Not too bad since both of us are still coughing our heads off.  Now tomorrow we start Phase 2: Demolition of the old office-turn it into a temporary playroom.  It is nice that we can still work together and not choke each other.

Our temperature has fallen drastically this week. We only got to 2` today and it won't get much warmer the rest of the week. Our lowest is should be Thursday when the temps are supposed to fall to -21. Brrrr
Nice to know that winter is about half way over. Seed catalogs are all in and Corra and I are making our lists.

My head is full of ideas for our next project-now just to convince my better half how great they are and we can get going on it.
