Neligh Library Home

This blog serves as a journal starting in June of 2006 when I moved back to Nebraska with my three young children. Starting over with a new career in a new place can be overwhelming but I have focused my energy on the renovation of this beautiful building that will someday be a home for my family. The process is liberating and therapeutic. Since most of my friends and family are located around the world and are not here to watch, this blog will serve as a window to the journey.

Summer Projects

The last 3 months have consisted of cold, short days often with bone chilling wind. When the sun did shine I loved opening the curtains and letting it stream in. However, just last week I saw my first robin and as the sun rises earlier every morning I'm starting to think about spring and summer. These days of being cooped up inside have also allowed me time to make my list of summer projects, because home remodeling is never really done! So here's my laundry list:

- scrape and paint the last 4 LARGE exterior windows
- swim in the river with the kids
- install last of the soffit vents
- have a beer
- refinish basement doors (6)
- go tanking with friends
- finish tiling back steps
- go waterskiing and fishing with the kids
- finish attic doorway
- have another beer or two

Seriously, did you think all I would do was work?

Heidi - so happy I could participate in some of your "to do list" - beer, swimming in the river, and I'm going to claim helping scrap and paint the 4 exterior windows since I spent 30 seconds helping move the scafolding!!

So glad you and the kids came to visit! So does that mean for your next visit we need to go tanking, waterskiing, and fishing?
