Bring on the heat!

Cause we're ready! Last week, the first of several major renovations to the house was completed with the installation of central air conditioning. So long to 8 long years worth of window-unit nonsense! After growing up in a house with central A/C then moving to a house without it and having to deal with window units, I realized very quickly how much of a pain those things are to deal with. And after replacing all the windows over the past few years, well just say I'm glad I don't have to worry about those getting all scratched up anymore. So bring on the hazy, hot and humid weather! The crazy summer heatwaves that last for weeks! (Just not any droughts, ok? Food prices are high enough as it is!) Cause we are ready to sit back in a nice cool comfy house!

Next up - we need to secure a mason so we can secure some money and get the exterior renovations going. We've talked to 4 stone masons already and we have a really good feeling about 2 of them. One of them wanted us to measure for the square footage ourselves - what?? Isn't that what you're supposed to do? And another one quote a price that is way above the average. So stay tuned...
