I know what I want to be when I grow up....

Anything BUT a door installer.... omg..it's terrible..you sweat and get your fingers smashed and the doors don't fit and then they do fit and then it's hot and stuffy and the attic fan makes a weird noise and then it's still hot and on and on and on and on....

But lets go back to Friday night.  On our way to the house, we stopped at Two Dudes Barbecue...




 and had this... YUMMY... we will definitely stop here again..
Saturday we got a bit of a late start...9am...But we got three doors installed and then headed to Columbia to get four more...and had a wonderful steak dinner (I had a lobster tail on the side) at Longhorn with NO wait on a Saturday at 6pm which is almost unheard of in Columbia..

And then we drove the four doors home...


And here are almost all of the doors installed...

second bedroom door

master closet door

second bedroom closet door

we used our bed as a work table..
 Apparently I didn't take photos of all the doors...  We did install master bedroom door, master closet #1, master closet #2, bedroom 3 door, bedroom 2 door and bedroom 2 closet.  yes, count again...that's six doors.  The last one we had was for the hall linen closet, but we have decided that the door we bought was a bit too wide for the opening so we brought it home and will return it for the next smaller size...

i swept and shop vac'ed the sun room..
 I also painted two coats on two of the doors...but no photo..

Thought it might be nice to have a gas price ...this is the lowest I have seen it for a while..

and did we pass someone famous?  There were two of these huge racing trucks.  It looked like a nice motor home pulling an equally nice racing trailer.  This one says "Thanks to Linda and my boys Cameron and Trey".  Then there was a duplicate of this following it...  It said "For Sale"..  We don't follow racing..at all...  Is this someone we should have waved to when they sped past us??  Oh..well...it made for conversation..
And we measured for base board and we need 332' ... that's a lot of painting baseboard...and installing baseboard ...
