So, we now have a friendly tom cat under our house.  Yes, we really need to get the flashing up and taken care of this week.  We're hoping to go to Home Depot or Lowes to pick it up tonight so that we can work on it after Tanner gets off of work on Thursday and Friday.
We're finding it difficult to determine what to do next.  We still have one window that is boarded up, but we're thinking of taking that window out and just siding over everything.  Since the house has 17 windows, I think it might be best to actually get rid of a few of them.  So, if we don't replace that window, then we have to frame in a wall.  So, do we do that next, or do we try to side the bathroom wall, or do finish siding the back of the house, or do we work on the roof , or do we finish siding the wall with the electrical panel?  And if we do side, how do we get the siding here?  It won't fit in the car, so it means renting a truck.  If we rent a truck, we would want to buy ALL of the siding for the house.  So, if we buy all of the siding for the house, where do we store it?  We still haven't finished the shed, so the siding will have to go IN the house.  See the dilemna we face?  Lots of logisitics to work out.
I think we've finally settled on getting the exterior of the house sealed.  Not necessarily sided and looking pretty, but sealed, so that rodents and cats can't live under or in the walls.  After that we'll have to figure out whether we build a shed or reside the rest of the house or install the rest of the AC units or replace the rest of the windows so that the windows can be moved OUT of the back room...hehehe!  I love it that life is so interesting and really not boring.
