Work, Work, Work

We're progressing nicely on the demolition. Since last Friday, another 80 hours of volunteer labor (us , plus family & friends) have been logged, and we have made tremendous progress! Thanks so much to everyone who has come out to help!
We have a hard deadline now that we are working toward. We need to have all of the demo completed by next Saturday, November 13. That's the day the mold guy is coming to disinfect the house. This company is allowing us to provide the labor (saving mucho dinero!!) and they are providing a mold expert, all the mold killing gear and space suits for us to wear. (Never fear, there will be pictures.) From what I understand, we will cover every exposed surface in the house with a mold killing foam, then we'll hand scrub every surface (volunteers?...anyone?), followed by a fogging of the house. Lastly, the mold guy will hepa-vac the fogged air out of the house, and viola!! Mold free guarantee!!

I haven't had much opportunity (or need) to make any fun purchases yet, which is a bummer, but I did do a little scouting today. (I believe the pros, like my she-ro, Sarah Richardson, call this "sourcing" : ) So many ideas; so little house! I'm anticipate that my life (and this blog) will become much more exciting once we start putting the house together instead of taking it apart. I can't wait!!
