Quick Porch Update

So here is a quick update on our porch:
The framing is basically complete (I have to finish building the landing outside the door)

The windows are in and the exterioir is sheeted and housewrapped (is that a word?)

The fireplace has been installed.


This is what it look like on the inside:


The question of the day it: Can I get it finished in time for fireplace season?

Hello John and Sara
Your porch looks so nice. It's great to see what's going on in your life these days. It's so fun looking at your pics. I hope we can connect sometime!

Oh cool - I love it. Dad and I got to see your porch picture last night in Montana at a motel.
Tonight we are in Bismarck - our last night before getting home.
I got some great pictures.

Dear Cloe,
I think your new fireplace looks great! I would like to snuggle up in front of it. I like you.
Love,
Sam

Hey Sam,

My name is Cleo, not Cloe. I know it is easy to get confused. If I liked any other animals I would invite you over to enjoy the warmth of my new fireplace.

That is going to be completely awesome!

Hey... I have to tell you that I had a dream about you two this weekend... We were staying at your house and you had several people over for dinner. After dinner you (Sara) made us all sit by the counter in the kitchen and presented several different scoops of homemade icecream (all different kinds, like 8 or 10) and each had a corresponding cookie. Once you chose a particular cookie, you had to have the icecream that went with it. :o) The last part of the dream was strange. Everyone was going to "chill out" in your hot tub, when Sara's grandfather started playing the most annoying song ever on an accordian of all things. He just played it over and over and over until John finally told him to stop!

All of this is odd because I have never met Sara in person, I have never seen your house. I have no idea if you have a hot tub, or if Sara's grandfather is alive or if he ever played an accordian! What a bizaare dream!

Any dream analyzers out there? Analyze away and please do share!

Sorry Cleo! I don't want to make you mad, I know you have sharp claws and I don't.
