Right after church this morning, Josh and I got back to work on the wallpaper stripping. We completed that horrendous task by 11 and our steamer wasn't even due back to the rental place until 12:30! I then got busy fixing up the walls to prepare for painting. While the spackling was drying, Josh and I worked in the yard and got some other projects done around the house. Tabitha was gone all afternoon. She had a group project to work on for school and fortunately, one of the boys in her group just so happened to have an old horse drawn wagon and some other 1800's accoutrements that they needed to make their video truly look like a western wagon train. Certainly one of the benefits of a rural community with classmates that live on farms! Calvin started playing with his new tennis group this afternoon. His coach had asked him and just three other kids to play in a spring league. These are the kids that the coach thinks have real potential to excel in the summer league. After tennis, Max and Calvin headed to a birthday party. Unfortunately, Josh had to spend the afternoon at the funeral home for a memorial service for a co-worker. This father of three died suddenly on Wednesday at the age of 46 from a massive heart attack in the parking lot at work. Unbelievable.
After trimming all of the hedges and doing all the edging in the yard, I got busy sanding Tabitha's walls. They look pretty good and should be ready for their first coat of paint as soon as I can dig up a little bit of energy. Right now, I have none to spare!
