The Beginning of the End---

and I don't mean of the world!!!  Today the trim carpenters come.  They expect to finish today.  Tomorrow the painters come.  They expect to finish on Thursday.  Friday the carpet goes down.  After that I can put my house back together and redecorate!  Most of the stuff from the downstairs is in the garage now so there are very few places to sit.  All my china is sitting on my kitchen counter and on the deep freeze because I unloaded the china cabinet so the guys can move it around.  Dust is on everything and is at least 1/4 inch thick.  Service Master will clean the couches on Thursday (they are in the garage).  I have Friday off and hope to be able to get my kitchen back in working order and start cleaning off the things like my dining room chairs that will need to come back in the house immediately.  Theron, Heidi and Hud will get here on Friday night so I will have help on Saturday.  Kael has promised to come back and help move things back in also---he helped move things out Sunday.  Thanks to Keri and Troy also---and I didn't ask Keri to help, she's hoping carrying things makes the baby decide to come!
