Yesterday's Adventures...

Yesterday was busy --

I spent the day trying to reconcile occupation taxonomies between MedHunters and another job board (always fun :-).

Lisa spent the day stripping the wallpaper, peeling paint, and baseboard out of the butterfly room.  Wow.  The original builders of our house never primed the drywall, and so the paint usually strips right off the walls -- a big mess.  We bought new baseboard last night (same stuff we put in our bedroom), so we're mostly all set.

Lisa's saddle came yesterday -- she's off today to try it on Monster.

I got to leave early from work, and we talked to a furnace guy from Boehmers.  He was wonderful, and our new Lennox furnace is coming next week.  They're going to replace our broken water softener as well!

After the furnace guy left, and we ate delicious barbecued sausages for supper, I replaced the remaining receptacles in the butterfly room.  (we've replaced nearly every device in our house with Decora devices -- there are a few left that we couldn't get to before, behind furniture and stuff.  We're replacing the final ones as we redo rooms.

After we bought the trim (we tried Rona, and had bad luck, so went to Home Depot), we were pretty much done.  We poked around on our computers, watched some TV (ER), and went to bed.

All in all, a fun day!
