I Married Superman

This week we finally finished the floors in the small bedroom, living room, and dining room. We still have a little bit to do in the hallway but it is so nice to have the big rooms completed.

Because it was pretty humid this week, we had to wait about 48 hours between polyurethane coats. That’s why it took all week to finish them instead of only a few days.



Friday night we drove to Pennsylvania to go to my cousin’s wedding. On Saturday morning we went running with my dad’s running group. We only ran about 5 miles but it is a much hillier course than we’re used to.

The rest of the day was spent relaxing and watching football before the wedding – it was so nice to just lie around and do nothing!

The wedding was at a local park. It was nice since I hadn’t seen some of that side of the family for years.

We drove back home on Sunday morning. The weather was so wonderful that we decided to do some outside work. There have been huge mounds of mulch in the yard since December and it definitely needed some help.


We moved 2 truckloads of mulch to the back yard and it looks like there was barely a dent made in the pile. This was just the first step in a long list of fall work that we need to complete.

Throughout the home renovation work, Chris has shown his super strength on multiple occasions. This week he gave one more example.

On our property, there is a “No Outlet” sign. It has been pretty crooked ever since we bought the house. It has bothered Chris every day and he finally decided that he had had enough. He went out early in the week to try to straighten out the sign and…

“SNAP!”

He broke the sign completely off.


At least he put the sign up in the bushes so everyone will still know that they can’t find another way out.
