Well here is the new counter top, tile back splash, sink and flooring for the kitchen. If mom were in her right mind she would be so thrilled to have the update. The floors are so nice compared with the old tile.
It may seem crazy to attempt a remodel with mom in the house, but I think we accomplished it without too much angst.
Now for the termite treatment. It will be June 8th! They have termites working on 4 different areas of the house. Once it's treated we should be problem free.
Oh and then there was the escapade with the hot water tank. Dad insisted he would take out the old corroded tank and replace it himself. I tried to convince him a plumber would be best but NO! Alas after 2 different tanks and 6 days of my boiling and microwaving water. I DEMANDED the plumber. Billy from Bethany Plumbing was our hero!!! He came out and replaced their gas line and had that tank in and going in 20 minutes. NOW THE DISHES ARE CLEAN!!! Now the shower actually gets hot. Hallelujah for the plumber!
Mom is doing okay! In this picture, the kids are trying to encourage her to eat by Justus taking the helm. She hadn't eaten anything all day so at dinner, Justus just took off with telling her then he would just have to feed her then. And BOY DID HE!
