Got up to the pitch black morning at 6:00. I had coffee and talked to Carlo and for a half an hour. By 7:15, Chad the pressure washer guy was at the door.

He said no problems other than the crawl space not having a floor drain. Hope he figures this one out! By 10:15 Chad was gone and the cleaning - by his standards - was done...I am, however, anal!

the door looks good!

By 2:00 there were no returned calls or carpenter arrival. WTF? I spent most of the day at the laptop; doing work stuff and blogging. At 3:15 I found out the carpenter was not coming and no one was coming back to finish cleaning up the crawl space until Monday...so I cleaned up some things Chad and his power washer must have missed. I wiped down the inside of the shed walls and dried the floor. I was kept company by an unwanted visitor that was the size of my big toe - but that mouse could have been the size of an elephant for how "eeked" out I was. I got everything back in the shed and hosed off my boots for the umpteenth time. Steve stopped by and visited for a couple of hours. I packed up my stuff so I can hit the road when the sun rises in the morning. Friday will be a short day at home with lots to do since I am leaving for Springfield on Saturday. Carlo will be O'Wiching his weekend away - hopefully everyone will show up like they're suppose to!
