The oak flooring is all nailed in to the no-longer-stinky room, though we still have all the sanding and finishing yet to do.

I was at a standstill with the floor project, trying to decide how to proceed next, when our neighborhood got hit hard by some leftover winds from hurricane Ike, and we ended up without electricity for 10 days! Ugh!
Luckily it's back on now. And the silver lining to the windstorm crisis was all the firewood we salvaged from street corners-- I managed to carry it all up our hill and now we're hurriedly sawing and splitting it so it will be ready to use this winter!! Here's the first almost-cord we've got done so far:



Oh, and we're collecting all that wood for the lovely new wood burning stove we had installed into our fireplace last month!! Woohoo!!

Lastly, here's a gratuitous photo of happy Tom

Electricity, wood burning stove and a happy Tom. What more could you ask for? Maybe a glass of Pinot Noir. :)
Happy, but sick Owen is watching the Badgers on TV on the deck while listening to the Brewers game. That's the life.
