Well, if any of you do one has moved into our hall. Over the last 2 years the men have been working on our steps. But it has never really looked like a construction site. It had jack holding the stairs up, and even the occasional piece of draped canvas, and a wrenched up floorboard or two.
But our state of peaceful construction IS NO MORE!!!!!!!! No, the plasters have moved in for the week, bringing with them everything from scaffolding to (and this WAS a surprise) plaster. Now there is scaffolding rigged up on the steppes and plastic hanging everywhere, protecting the wood.
There is a powdery smell that lingers in the air.
There is metal(sp?) poles and wooden platforms nearly blocking our way to the upper stories.
There is progress! Which is cool!
There are six men scrambling around with large amounts of wet plaster and long sheets of dense chicken wire! (which they nail to the underside of the stairs and slather the plaster on)

Sounds like a bit of a bothersome mess but I know a "one legged man" who might think it was fascinating and cool, at least for a few minutes until his attention darted off in some new direction. Or I could send his sister and her watercolors to do some frescos for you as a homeschool art project!? LOL We will be praying for fast work and a return to normalcy for the front hall. Let us know when the ribbon cutting ceremony will be.
