We started by organizing Don's hobbies and the other stuff that has collected in the room. I have really enjoyed this since my hobby is organizing. I get such a thrill out of putting like things together in the perfect sized container and then using my label maker. So, this is just one more way that Don and I make a really good team as we compliment each other...he has stuff and I like to organize stuff.
Currently the basement is EMPTY! All of the organized stuff that we are keeping is in the garage as we work on the walls and floor of the man-cave. Thanks to Katie and Jeff this happened a few weeks ago. They helped get the big heavy items to the garage and removed the carpet, padding and tacking strips. An electrician installed the new wiring for the heated floor system and now Don is repairing the dry wall from those cuts. As soon as we figure out a few more details we will install the heated floor and than schedule the travertine tile to be installed.
Don is in charge of the function of the room and I am in charge of the decorating. I'm working on the wall color, area rug, futon cover and window treatment. Once again we compliment each other.
We are in awe of God and how He has blessed us and our marriage. We really give credit to Him for bringing us together since we met on a blind date! God used Don's brother and sister-in-law and my church friends to connect the two of us. So, here we are! Four years after that blind date we are working on a wonderful marriage, enjoying our home and just about to become a family of three!
"O LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done marvelous things, things planned long ago."
Isaiah 25:1
