Well, what do you know? Snow!

I suppose it's inevitable. Start a remodeling project and no doubt something will go wrong, cause delays, make you want to tear your hair out. Likely multiple somethings. Like falling through the ceiling. Or super strong winds. Or snow. In March. In Texas.


Didn't someone tell the weather that it's Spring Break starting today? But then again, it's also Friday the 13th, so we shouldn't be too surprised that we got the most snow we've had all winter this afternoon -- probably about 3 inches. I know, that really isn't a lot of snow. And any other day, we would be loving every minute of it. But not so much today, with a roof still unfinished and a couple of workers who are probably ready to go home by now.

This morning started out quite foggy and dreary. Some moisture overnight had left a coating of ice all around.



But the workers pressed on and by afternoon the snow started. And kept coming. And kept sticking to the ground. What can you do?


We had some drips in the house and Brian said the flooring got pretty wet up there. We were able to get some plastic sheeting and try to cover things up. And hopefully the storm has passed and it will warm back up this weekend.

Here's a peek at what the inside of the new addition looks like right now (taken before the snow started). The kids can't wait to move into their new bedrooms, but I keep having to reminding them that there is still a lot more work to do after the roof is put on.


So here's to a little sunshine in the forecast for tomorrow!
