My Sil Showed Up!!!
If you live long enough, everything you need comes your way!
My SIL showed up Monday morning to do the work on my house that I have needed done for how many months now? I'm so excited. Yesterday he went to buy me shelves and whatnot in Lowe's, and didn't come over. He and Jessie went together and they also went food shopping. Do you think he is going to charge me for a whole day? Today, he came over at 9:00 and left at about 12:00 because it is too nice out and he wanted to finish working on his deck and opening their pool. I have to laugh! Again, do I have to pay for the day? In all fairness, he does do more in 3 hours than a lot of contractors do in 8 hours. I will pay for the whole day if he asks for it. It's not worth arguing over, and it goes to my grandchildren. But, it's not right if he does. He will be back on Friday. Hurray! I am so glad it will be done and I can begin to do the finishing touches, which are so much fun.

So your place will be completely done as far as needing your SIL? That would be great. He kind of dragged it out some and you're a heck of alot more patient than I ever would be. You have a heart of gold.

I'm so glad he finally showed up! I know you've been needing his help for quite a while now. Hopefully he won't charge for a whole day. That would be a bit out of line...

This is why you never do business with family or friends if you can help it! I had no choice, and his work is beautiful. I always think everything happens because it is supposed to. I sure hope that's true!!!
