Today was a fun day for Gary as Doggie Day Care was closed and we had people here to put up all the drywall in the kitchen. So we moved the kennels in the 2nd bedroom and had the dogs hang out in this room for the day. At this while the guys worked downstairs and Gary in his office. Needless to say, Abbey's nerves got the best of her and she tore up her kennel pad. Gary salvaged what he could and put it immediately into the wash.

By mid-afternoon - all the drywall in the kitchen was up as you can see with the picture to the left. The bathroom is still a mess, but that will be done later in the project.

Outside is a different story. Travis was waiting for the concrete guys to show up at 4:45pm when I got home from work. When I left for chorus rehearsal at 5:30pm, they had finally showed up and were in the midst of pouring the slab. After the cement truck left, it was pretty dark so Gary hooked up some of our work lights and even pulled the Hummer down the driveway and pointed ALL the lights at the garage to help them finish up their work. I wasn't here, but knowing how bright the lights are on the Hummer (light bar, fog lights and high beams), I am sure it was like daylight for them. Travis left around 7pm, so it was another late night for him -- poor guy but I guess he is being paid overtime so I am sure he isn't complaining. It was about 8pm when the concrete guy finished up and it was too dark to take a picture of the garage slab, so you'll have to wait on what that looks like for the next posting on our blog.

Tomorrow, the tapers will be here to work on the kitchen while Travis will work on the concrete pad for the AirConditioner that we are having installed.
