Day 9 bedroom remodel. Slow going, but still going. After getting a quote of over $500 for foam from a local upholstery store we discovered you can buy custom cut foam from Amazon. We still had to do some of the customization ourselves but at a MUCH lower price.

Then we realized that the new bookshelf has a really slick surface and we were worried that paint would get scuffed off of the shelves with use. So we found this gorgeous contact paper to cover the shelves and interior back of the bookcase. The sides we will lightly sand then paint.

My Highlander is getting a rest at the dealership while they wait a MONTH for a replacement part for a recall. So I get to drive a brand new 4 Runner. Welcome to the homestead, city slicker. Just embrace the mud, you won’t be clean again.

Pot roast was delicious! This is the third day lunch leftovers. That’s what happens when you have a small family. Leftovers for days! But no one complained. Of course no one ever actually complains because everyone gets their turn to cook.

I used a chuck roast from Acme Acres veggies and herbs-carrots, onions, purple potatoes, rutabagas, parsnips, garlic, rosemary, thyme from our place and a couple vendors at the farmer’s market .

Nothing makes my heart skip a beat like glancing out the window to see a dog in our chicken run. Thankfully the doggie in question does not have the instinct to kill chickens and was more concerned about getting out of there ASAP. So we reinforced the entire perimeter fence and will hopefully prevent exciting times like these from happening again. BTW, this area is an extension of our regular chicken run and is only used when we are home to supervise. It is not a high security area even now.
