What a day! We started the demolation upstairs in the girls room today. I will have to say that it comes down faster than I thought it would. It may be the fact that Jonathan had a friend helping and they seem to work faster when there are two of them. Anyway, it is nasty is all I can say. Lots of rotted insulation and drywall. We discovered two ceilings. So not just the ceiling tile but then another drywall ceiling. It is going to be so great when it is all out and we can actually measure and see what we have. We have just two weeks to have the whole thing gutted so they can pick up the roll off container. Oh and just a side note. We thought it would be good to have a couple of realtors come and let us know how much the house we are living in is worth so we could put it up for sale. A couple of them came today. This evening one called and wants to show our house on Thursday! It is not even listed! Anyway, not thinking that is such a great idea yet, but we will see. It would be nice to sell if the people who have a house for sale next door to our new property would rent to us. That would be a great plus to be right there and not have to go so far to work on the property.
We are just a normal family that desires to live as debt free as possible and be a blessing to others. This blog is about part of our journey to get there. Come often and view our progress as we take the plunge with our "dream" home. Oh, you may see it as a nightmare but sit back and watch as our dream becomes a reality. A reality where we can enjoy the company of those traveling through as they stop and enjoy a good nights rest and some old fashioned home cooking. If by chance you live in the area or are traveling through, stop in and see for yourself what we are doing as you sit a bit and enjoy a glass of sweet tea. If nothing else, just come often and watch as this dream of ours unfolds right before your very eyes.
