And today Mathew I'm going to be ....... Putting a drop ceiling in,, well insulated above because the roof is old asbestos sheeting and in the summer Jo will just cook in the heat! Lolol. Someone will come along and find her like a sun dried Tomatoe!!! Lol. She says she's not girly but I couldn't start work this morning due to hair straighteners and a phone plugged into generator !!!!!! I ask you,,, she's living in the stone age but still needs her hair doing!!! Well I suppose I would be the same if I had any!!!!

Glad you are enjoying helping out and I wish you a wonderful new year, and I get the feeling 2016 is just going to be an amazing one for you.
