More Flooring

Wednesday, May 30, 2018

We had a little rain come through about 7:00 this morning but it was gone by 7:30 and that was it for the day. It was very little rain. The high today was 95 with a heat index of 100. We needed some extra water and Gatorade today. It is not even June but it is summer in southern Mississippi.

Nula brought our devotion today. She began with Voice of a Savior by Mandisa, and asked us to think about the lyrics and addictions. The scripture was from Mathew 5:1-12 and 14-16, 6:1-4. She reminded us that we are the light of the world and we need to let our light shine. There was some good discussion. Thank you, Nula. Good job.

We were off to the job site and started working on the flooring again. Today, bedroom #1 closet was completed and looks really good. Bedroom #2 is complete except for the closet. The underlayment was placed in the living room and the first three rows of laminate (the hardest) are down. It should start going faster now, although we do have to work our way down the hall and into some small closets and furnace room. We have also started the railing for the front porch.

Our construction coordinator plans to deliver some doors for the bedrooms and closets so we can begin on those as well. James and his daughter came by this afternoon to see the house. They seemed pleased. James is very anxious to move in the house but it will still be a while because R3SM still has to scheduled the electrician and plumber as is required in this area. Evidently that takes a while.

Best part of the day: When we stopped work at about 4:15, we headed back over to R3SM and made banana splits and sat around visiting with our team in the cool air conditioned dinning room.
