No Treat Here
-thumb.jpg)
We just (re)confirmed that we don't get any trick or treat(ers) around the house. Last year we got the same result...nada (or nadie). Oh well, C'est la vie.

Nursery
This is how the soon-to-be nursery looks right now. A lot of work ahead I'm afraid.

Another Guest Room...OK'ed
No doubt that a fresh coat of paint will make a difference on any room...although the lack of furniture is still an issue.

Dry As A (Chicken) Bone
So far with the rain we got today, our basement is dry...
Come on, send me some serious downpours, I would love to see those (3) sump pumps spitting water!

Well, it's done. After 3 dusty/noisy days, our basement is now water-proof (according to their invoice), now we need some serious rain to test it.

Project Flood Watch - Day 2
Today a lot of progress was made, but unfortunately some problems came up, some pipes are poorly aligned and some holes on the walls missed their mark....oh well, hopefully the guys we hired will fix them.
For those who know Luciana, you know what's ahead for those (poor) guys...

Who said that using an arrow is not good for marking the center of a room?

To make room for our basement repair (or project flood watch) we finally got rid of those old 2x4s.
Definitely this is a busy month.

Oh That Lovely Rain...
Yeah, rain is good, a lot of biological organisms really appreciate it, but in our case, well, we get an instant pond. How about that to promote those biological cooties, huh?.
