Well this morning I woke up and I think someone mugged me during the night. Every inch of my body feels like it took a hit from a very large bat. My legs went into overtime trying to get me to the kitchen to turn the coffee on. No I must have been in a wrestling match that is what it was…I must have wrestled a large bear yesterday. Then I realized that it was all the ups and downs I had done to cut insulation. Reaching up to hold it while Mike stapled it in place…stretched muscles that I have not used in some time. It was a good feeling to know that we had completed the job and now all I had to do was hang the sheetrock.
Well today Mike had once again volunteered to help me hang sheetrock in the ceilings. We got going about 10:00 am…got the sheetrock and were headed back to the barn around 11:00 am. Once again we had to take everything out of the barn and made a place on the deck for our sawhorses. We got the sheetrock cut and in place after a bit of figuring. Hey it looks really good. I will have to take the camera over there and take some pictures of our handy work. Gosh how great is this…having someone to help me do this. I know Sherri is so happy that Mike likes to do this kind of stuff. She is the one that usually ends up holding the sheetrock while I nail it in place.
We only picked up enough sheetrock to do the ceiling. Tomorrow, if Mike wants to I will pick up the materials needed to finish the job. It will be so nice to get Sherri’s room done so I can get to work on my half of the barn. I have enough insulation left to do some of my walls and that will help me stay warmer in the cooler months.
OK after all the S T U F F was returned to the barn Mike helped me wash the truck which was in dir need of it. It sure looked nice when we were finished. The last time I had washed the truck was in Kerrville Texas.
Well after we returned from the barn we made plans for dinner which Sherri was preparing. She was making home made chili. Mike and Leslie came over about 6:00 and we sat and visited for about 30 minutes before we ate. We really have enjoyed being with the two of them and look forward to many more fun adventures to come…

That barn sounds like it's turning into a pretty comfortable hide-away! That's sure great of Mike to help you - sheetrock is a killer by yourself!
Sounds like you are making steady progress!
I can't wait to see the pics Joe. :)
I am envisioning "your side" and then "Sherri's side", for some reason I think Sherri's side might end up being a wee bit more than 50%. ;)
We have been looking at doing the same thing with a piece of property so keeping up with the amenities you've added helps us.
Thanks for sharing!
