Rick left on Thursday, and I stayed and worked Thursday and about half a day on Friday and arrived late Friday afternoon. Rick installed the mini-splits for the master bedroom and 2nd bedroom on the south end of the house and finished everything up after dark on Friday night. It was much cooler than it's been, and we had storms both Saturday and Sunday (I heard 2+ inches). It wasn't quite enough to completely close in the massive cracks in the yard yet but was much needed and appreciated.
Saturday, we finished putting up sheetrock in the 2nd bedroom and worked on wiring, insulating, and prepping the east wall of the living room for sheetrock. We stopped a little early on Saturday night and attended the Fall Festival at the school--I still call it the Halloween Carnival. We watched the program and played Bingo until almost 1am (and won a lot of stuff)! It had been over 40 years since I'd been.
Thankfully, it was the night to "fall back", so the extra hour of sleep was helpful. On Sunday we finished prepping and putting sheetrock up on the east living room wall. Next week will likely involve installing the remaining mini-split in the living room (probably on the north wall rather than the east wall) after we get the electricity and sheetrock completed. If the laundry room window arrives, that might be installed as well. We'll continue to work on getting the electricity and sheetrock on south and north living room walls and then move to the hallways.

Oh dear—that’s a scary picture of me. I think I was trying to make a duck face 😆. We had lots of fun playing Bingo last night. Family is a special blessing.
Y’all are doing a great job on your house. Your attention to detail is phenomenal. I’m sure looking forward to being your renter.
