Thursday or Friday evening: Whoever can go, we'll work out a time to go supply shopping at Lowe's or Home Depot or....whereever.
Saturday morning: Let's start work at 9 a.m. We'll be painting, laying tile in the bottom floor bathrooms and sanding some floors. That'll also be a good time to put contact paper in the kitchen and bathroom cabinets. If we hear from Phil, we'll try to install A.C.'s and stoves then as well.
Sunday: We'll finish up any work we didn't get done on Saturday. We'll start in the afternoon, say around 1?
Next Saturday: Workday with Lifechurch peeps. Let's all be there to help out and show our support for them. And also to make sure they don't get carried away and demolish the house. That's supposed to scare everybody into coming up. :) It's pretty exciting: they're going to help us install a railing on the stairwell, install doors, floors, steps, hang blinds and more!
Please let us know if you can be there. With a specific task list, hopefully we'll be able to get a lot done. Get excited!
If you're not around to help out, don't feel bad. We understand. They'll still be lots to do when you get here. :) But there's still lots of things you can do from home: Pray for us (this is probably the most important); scrounge your local craigslist, freecycle, garage sales or friends for a fridge, freezer, washer, dryer, window units, space heaters, seeds for the garden and more; make curtains; send us some cash to help pay for supplies; come have coffee with us some other time when we're not working to feed our souls :).... These are just some ideas. Feel free to add your own.
Love, Janet
