Lumber Troubles

So technically they were suppose to start framing Monday. Dad ordered the lumber early last week. When they didn't have it up here last Friday he canceled that order and placed one with another lumber company that assured him it would be there by Tuesday. Well it wasn't. Supposedly they had a blowout on their way from H.S. they finally got it there Wednesday. My brother and his friends were ready to come up Thursday morning but it was raining. They didn't want to drive the hour up here and get rained out. Completely understandable. So as of now, they will be up here Monday to start putting up the walls. 

We're having bad luck with material. The concrete truck broke down. The lumber truck had a blow out. What next?  

I picked out the front door, back living room doors, and the sliding door for the bedroom this week. Super excited that they have the blinds built in. I hate regular blinds on doors.

Pool Time!

We spent the weekend at our friends' pool. We took the dogs with us Sunday so they could have a play date. M and B have to pit bulls that are so sweet. Nahla, the youngest one, loves to play! They were also puppy sitting the cutest beagle ever!  They absolutely love going places! They were waiting in the car while I was loading our things.  I've never been able to get Hatfield in the pool, but Lilly loves it. She started off just sitting on the steps and one day she just jumped in. So, now she jumps in every now and then to cool off. Kev mixed up refreshing peach mojitos (I guess I've had major peach craving lately) this weekend. I'd share the recipe but that's his job. I never really know what all goes into what I'm drinking. I just know it's delicious! 

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

The Crud

I feel like crud! I've blown my nose so much this weekend that my face is raw and red. I can't imagine how I have this much snot in me. Anyways. I didn't get my Thursday 3 miler in or my 9 mile long run this weekend. How can I run when I can't freaking breathe?!? I've been taking medicine and using my Nettie Pot, so here's hoping I feel like running towards the end of this week. So glad this is a short work week and a field trip on Wednesday. I NEED a break!!
