This morning Ricky came over to tear down walls for the big bathroom overhaul.  It started months ago,  when I pulled V's crib away from the wall in the quest room to clean,  and urrrrg the rug was black with mold.  At first Luke and I were scared.  Everyone has heard the horror stories.  Mold.  The whole house has to be destroyed.  The owners are in debt forever.  

Alarmists gave huge estimates and dire threats .  Through grace we are saved from huge debt by our amazing son-in-law Bobby F.  He lent us his construction genius and we were on a sensible,  doable path.  

When the work is done--by Thanksgiving--we will have the master bath we've always wanted.  The moisture will be cleared away,  the plumbing problems repaired,  and we'll have a giant,  whirlpool tub-spa area.  Yummmm.  Thank you God.  Ricky and the amazing Bobby F. 

I rested,  played word games and  organized my work area.  Did a little laundry.  But mostly rested.  I was determined not to spoil movie night.  

As always  MKate,  Luke and I ate at Noodles.  They were so busy tonight.  People are breathing easier now that the price of gas is down.  Then on to the movies.  " Role Models " was hilarious.  We ate organic popcorn and laughed.  

Cold temps came in with the dark clouds today.  Oh well.
