Window Install Part 2

Tonite Ben, Pete, and Vic came to finish up the kitchen windows. And they are fan-spankin'-tabulous! (I just made that word up cuz it just had a nice ring to it)

And so straight! I feel for Ben. I think this is the first 'graphic designer owned' house he's ever worked on. And I can guarantee you, on all his future contracts, he will indeed ask what the owner's occupation is and upcharge any artsy individuals who think they know what they're talking about. You're my hero Ben, for going the extra mile! I'll always smile at our 'little story' from tonite when I look at my most favorite windows!

Rich also showed up after his vacation to check the progress. Welcome back to reality Pete and Rich! From sunsets to sawdust in a mere few hours...

Jeremy came to do some gyproc work downstairs in preparing for my office. Cody 'helped' him for awhile... thanks for the bonus daycare Jeremy! (gulp!)

Gina came to catch up on the progress and offer up some advice. Janette and I got caught in a big yakfest but then got on with it (once caught of course!) Mandy and her friend came for a quick peek too.

And Cody! He got involved tonite with keeping Jeremy busy, and was the cleanup crew. Good job buddy!

Before the crew showed up tonite, even Dan snuck in for a quick visit to look at the progress. I could see his mind working 100 miles an hour as he took it all in. Whatcha thinkin' 'bout Dan?!? Arg... wish his mind had windows like my house. His thinking is different than most, he sees the future so easily and creatively. He doesn't say much (but did LOVE what he saw!) but I think he does that on purpose to keep me on an excited edge...

I want to thank everyone for giving up their evening tonite. I hope the laughs we get to share around the work make it as enjoyable for you as it is for me.

Until next time...
