Now the roof is off and we are starting to tear the rest of it down. I would post new pictures but my batteries in my camera died. If I can ever remember to buy new ones I will be doing good. It has been putting down some rain here, but if all goes right by the end of this weekend the back half of the house should be gone. We have more sales starting this weekend. "March Madness Sales" They will think of anything to come up with sales. So this weekend we will be getting the siding, roofing, windows, and doors. We already have the stuff for the framing, insulation, dry wall, some cabnets, and the sub flooring. You know you see people getting those big dumpster all the time and I never realized how expensive they really were. We have dumped almost two grand just in dumpsters. That is just crazy. Plus the stupid thing has probably ruined our yard. That is alright because one of my sisters is a landscaper. It never hurts to have friends in low places. She is always giving my dad (who has a super green thumb) plants that are almost dead and he revives them and gives them to other people to plant. Of course, I don't know if I will get around to planting anything this year due to the garage that is going up next year, but I might do up the front yard. I plan on putting some lilac bushes by the bedroom and kitchen windows too so when I open the windows for the first time in the spring my house will smell like fresh flowers.
