Encouragement

Steve and Frank finished cutting trim for the baseboards downstairs, then moved on to making shelves for the storage area in the garage.
We met with Johnny McDonald the painter today. He wanted to walk through the house with us room by room to finalise our paint color selections. He completed the work on the stained cabinets today and will start painting tomorrow.
We had hoped to have a small meal together at the house on Thanksgiving with Paul's family, but with all the paint fumes and the weather turning cold that day we decided it was best to cancel those plans.
My sweet friend Kathryn wrote us an encouraging email today, she said "Next yr, God Willing, your home will be filled with all the wonderful smells you want - turkey, dressing, cranberries, pumpkin pie, hot rolls...yum. So close...hold on! moving day's around the corner. Thank you Kathryn, you made my day!
