This morning we played a bit after breakfast then drove up to Nashville. I went to Southeastern Salvage for some flooring. They didn’t have enough, so I might have to drive a ways to get more. We’ll see once I start installing. Next we stopped at CVS for Lauren’s birthday card before heading on to her house. Luke was happy to see her and Wild Dog, and my parents once they arrived. We ate pizza and strawberry cake, socialized, then returned home. Before dinner we played. Now Liz and Luke are doing the bed time routine.

There was a light dusting of snow on the ground this morning. And it was cold. I went to Piggly Wiggly for some cereal then just relaxed around the cottage until nearly eleven. I really didn’t want to go to the job site, but I did. I put down plywood underlayment for about five hours. I nearly finished and have just a little remaining for Monday. After returning to the cottage to pack up I drove home. It was good to see Liz and Luke.

I spent the morning helping out a friend with something, then this afternoon I worked on putting down underlayment for the kitchen and foyer tiles. That went surprisingly well. Later a guy came by to give a quote on a septic system, trenching, and final grade. I think I will use him. After loading up I took my trailer back to the cottage, stopped at the Goat Market for a drink, then drove home via Bell Buckle. Luke was finishing dinner, so we read a little afterwards, then he did his bed time routine.
