White Trash Living - Part 2

Well, its been a few weeks since this project got started...Its starting to look really amazing! It makes the house look so different with the white shingles gone. Well, they aren't all gone but one wall is well under way and we started the back side today. Randy has to go back to work tomorrow and then our next days off we'll be in Lubbock, so it'll look like yuck for a while before we can get back to it. Oh well...And we got our rocks delivered so with the trailor piled with sand and the 10 boxes of fake rocks in my driveway, I park across the street... = The motorcycle is parked on the walk way...its pretty crazy!

TODAY'S WORK:

White Trash Livin'

We better not live like this for long! The ugly white shingle things look better than this! hahaha Randy got off early yesterday and decided to get started...and I picked up as much as I could, but the pickup got full before it all got picked up! :( So it looks even worse when driving by! But, it will look a million times better when it all gets done! And I can't wait!!!

The chimny bricks are not coming down, we are going to put rocks on it as well. And the this side here, the back and the other side will be done in the elastomeric stucco stuff that expands and recoils with the weather. And its not supposed to crack! So...its a work in progress and there ain't no turnin' back!

The front of the house will be rocked, "Country Rubble".

<----This is the style of the rock, but I can't remember what colors are in the boxes...we got it from a guy that sells it, but the people that ordered it never came to pick it up so we got it half off!!! But its the color they picked...and I'm not real sure what that is! I hope its not white!! I want SOME color!!! Yes, we were able to see the rocks, but I honestly can't remember the colors, I was just happy because there were enough boxes and we were able to get it half off!!! What I didn't know until we were looking at them, they are individual rocks, not sheets...so each and every rock will be laid with love and touched by some ones hand...I hope not all of them have my finger prints...

So, whose coming to visit?!?! (we need some cheap workers!)

Well, I really should be studying for my exams this weekend, but I thought I'd post some pictures and give a Reed update before we start a new month! Cohen's TBall practices start next week...he's been ready to start for the past 2 weeks! Corbin sneezes about 3 times throughout the morning and eact time green snot blows out down to his knees! Really, its bad! Randy is barely getting by taking so many hard classes and having to type so many papers. He has a 6 pager due Wednesday for one class and several more due for other classes...I've actually tried to write them, but I have no idea what his reading material is about! I've tried reading it, but its so boring!! And for me, this new month that is about to begin will be a good one...NO MORE PHYSICS! Ya, I dropped the class. I wasn't passing and I made a whoppin 17 on an exam and I need my GPA to go UP not down!!! So, I'm going to stick to the Radiology program and should get in this fall!! Should does not mean I will, there are alot of applicants and only about 20 get in! Enjoy the pictures and I'll try to keep this updated a little more since I don't have physics on the brain!

T-Ball Time =)

Coach Matt/Joseph called tonight and asked if Cohen wanted to play this year, so of course I said yes! So, he will be on the Stingers team again and he will actually get to play! I just hope he doesn't clam up and get shy in the hot seat! I hope that since he'll actually get to practice and participate it'll be more fun and he'll open up!

And since he'll already know his team-mates he will be a little more at ease...I hope! I'm excited!

Thanks Kristi

I created this so I can comment on Kristi's stuff! I hope it works! I'll try to keep it updated as well as Kristi...since schools started I know I haven't sent pictures or emails ... maybe this will help out!
