Well, this week we got quite a bit done on Miss Edith's house. When we left on Friday, the whole outside of the house is ready to be painted, Bill and I primed all the new siding and trim on Friday. The walls of one bedroom were all painted, the floor tiles were all done yet and the other two rooms are ready to be painted. I think two more good days, and the majority of it will be done. We are still waiting for Hugo to finish mudding the back room. I was glad I wasnt stuck mudding all week. I mudded on Monday and the majority of Tuesday. I was lonely being shut off in the back bedroom all day by myself. But from Wednesday on, the small crew that had been working elsewhere came to help us finish up as this project is way over budget of time and money. So I worked with Bill putting up 4 by 8 sheets of cement board siding, getting that to look decent and then priming it. A small room had been added to this house in the last little while, and that is what need to be covered in siding. I am not sure what I will be doing this week, but I am assuming Bill and I will be painting the exterior of the house. It was warm all week. In the low to mid 30's. It was nice inside the house though. Miss Edith put on the air conditioning for them as me and Bill were out in the sun. I would have lost weight from all the sweat of the meals werent so good.

Whatever were you doing up so early on a Sunday morning? At home you didn't get up that early unless you had to go to work. Thanks for adding to your blog. I gave the people at church your blog address today.
My room gets too light early in the morning. So I have to get up.
