Things have been extremely busy for us in our new house.
I have never understood how people buy a house and call it their own but live in it exactly the same way the previous owners did. That being said,
My kitchen:
is in the process of being insulated (which required the plaster & lath being taken down and drywall being put up)
has been stripped of all linoleum flooring, which revealed a beautiful pine floor (that I will soon get around to painting)
is no longer home to the washer & dryer (which have been moved to the basement)
shows no signs of any cabinets ever having been there (bring on the farm tables for food prep, baker's racks and wall mounted drainboard sink)
will soon be made beautiful with (faux) tin ceiling and mis-matched fabrics and reds and yellows
My bathroom:
has gone from 8' X 11.5' to 8' X 15' (by not so simply moving the door frame)
is also in the process of being insulated (which requires the same work as in the kitchen)
will soon show off my new, used claw foot tub (that I won't know how antique it is until after I sand the exterior/bottom)
is being designed around the dry sink I made (out of my Birdy's changing table)
My upstairs:
has been stripped down to the supports in order for me to put up electrical and insulation
I'm tired. Much to do though as Grandma is due for a visit and won't care much for the unfinished look so I'll rest later.
I do need to mention that I have been away from my computer but so many of you have been in my mind and daily prayers.
