The Money Pit, Part II

Last night while standing in line at Atlanta Bread Co., I noticed a young woman sitting at a table.

"Doesn't that girl work at Lowe's?" I said.

Clint looked at her. "You're right, I think she does," he said.

Clearly, I have been spending way too much time at Lowe's if I can recognize cashiers in a non-Lowe's setting. This can't be good.

We are still in full-blown renovations but starting to see progress. Almost the entire second floor is painted (except the room over the garage and the master bathroom). We're still in discussion about what to do with those. I've painted a ton of trim and door frames. Clint, who has boundless amounts of energy, will stay up into the wee hours painting the walls.

Today's chores include taking down doors for cleaning and painting and beginning the flooring process. We're hoping to have a significant amount of the second floor done by the end of the weekend. I certainly hope so - it will be nice to have some sense of normalcy.
