Nothing exciting going on today. Lots of visiting with neighbors. Marvin came down to see what was going on. Before he left his brother Roger stopped to talk. Later Dwight , Delmar and Janice's son, stopped by. He and his wife Teresa are going to be building next to us. He wanted to make sure he didn't do anything that would upset us with the way electricity was run to their place. He will have to cut down some of our scrub trees along the road, to provide the clearance to the new line to his place. Later Bill & Sally, the folks who live on beyond Tom & Mary Lou, stopped as they drove by. They just wanted to say Hi.
We went to Tom & Mary Lou's for supper last night. Dean fixed scalloped potatoes and veggies and Kathy made a couple of pies. All was good, but that is normal.
The heating guys should finish up in the morning. My drywall for the ceiling and the insulation for the exterior walls is supposed to be delivered tomorrow afternoon. I will pick up the "drywall hoist" (device to lift sheets to the ceiling) either late tomorrow or the first thing Thursday morning. Marvin is coming down Thursday to help me, or maybe I'm helping him, put the drywall on the ceiling.
I will put fiberglass batt insulation in the exterior walls. A guy is supposed to give me a price for blowing insulation into the attic. Tom got me pricing for spray insulation, it was over 4 times what fiberglass will cost, of course the price included the labor to spray it.
Andy has been keeping wood in our wood furnace, back in Missouri, while we have been gone. Hopefully we are getting to the end of the below freezing temperatures. It was close to freezing here in TN last night. Tonight it is supposed to get slightly below freezing and then tomorrow night it is supposed to be in the mid 20's. After that it warms up.
Kelsey and Lydia had an uneventful trip back to Missouri yesterday.
Good evening to all. May God bless you and yours.
