So, our dryer broke while we were out of town and we called the landlord to have someone fix it and we came back home from work to this. Later in the week, they managed to find us a new (used) one.

Another Gingergirl visit. Ginger, by the way, is an 11 year old retired sled dog with whom Ollie is desperately in love. She spurns his advances and humors him by staying in a cuddle every once in a while, but he just won't give up on getting her to love him one day.

Packs of dogs running around the neighborhood, humping each other. I wish people would just spay and neuter their dogs :(

My friend Jamie came to help us. She's a better builder than I am.

Also - these are my red building pants. When we arrived in North Carolina, we were told about the red soil that will stain all of our clothes. We were also told about a fabulous thrift store, where I purchased these awesome red jeans to wear at the build all week.
