So, we woke up this morning just sort of feeling under the weather. It’s not nice outside today, kind of gray in gray and pretty darn cold. Not a good start to a day which is just filled with activities.

Stefan already headed the Hagebau this morning to pick up some steel cutting discs and a new water heater for the kitchen (a whole other set-back yesterday, involving minor flooding… more on that later).

I already took care of some housework while Stefan was out shopping and so, even though we are not really motivated to get down to work this morning a few things are ticked off from our to do list already.

A thing that put a bit of a spring in our step is that the first of three deliveries for the day is already here. And it is working out perfectly, the order from Hagebau is by far the heaviest order (drywall, framing, etc.), and we figured it would be best if it got here first in the order to place it close to the stables.


Now it would be perfect if the Stuff from Hornbach would get here next. Then it’s time for the trash container. How very exciting!

We put off the bricking until tomorrow. It is just so dirty and heavy, and neither of us feels up to the task Better to take out the steel gate (like that will be any lighter) and then start moving on ceiling insulation.
