Been a busy week. Thankfully, I've been off the last few days and will be off Friday and Saturday for a wedding in Fond Du Lac. I think this is my first time there, and obviously Mia's. Jill's parents are coming up to keep an eye on her at the hotel, as Jill and I attend the evening.
Yesterday, my good buddy Jay came over and installed a new side garage door. It fell on top of me I believe last summer and since then, we had a ghetto tarp cover the hole and it was starting to look real real sad. Jay's been doing construction and carpentery for a very long time and could have probably done this with his eyes closed. Then he noticed something sketchy.
When we had our garage doors and the openers installed, the guy who did the left side didn't raise the top steel part as high as he could have, and when we picked up the side door, it would swing IN and hit the metal frame. CRAP! Luckily, Jay could take the door frame apart, and re-do the side door to make it work. Such a genius. Hole=closed. Door installed. everything looks great. In the future, we'll get him to rip up and put in new bathroom tile. The man loves what he does, and it's real inspiring to see this guy so proud after a great job. You aught to see his bathroom he worked on in his own house. While he was working, we caught up with what was going on in each others lives, talked about music, etc etc while Mia slept most of the time. When she was awake, she was cracking up Uncle Jay. Today, I stopped on my way to my parent's house by his place to drop off some beer and a gas gift card for a great job he did. I could easily recommend Jay to anyone needing anything done on their house.
Tomorrow, it's off to Julie (Jill's co-worker)'s wedding. Hopefully Mia behaves.
(NOTE) the picture in the corner was from when Mia was napping outside as Jay worked on the door. Cute eh?
