Today is Saturday April 25th, and Spring is in the air. Since the last entry, Nick, Bob and Ariana have continued to work hard to get the house in great shape.
Some exciting things have happened, including more sanding, spackling, painting, caulking, clearing the garage of the old carpet, new kitchen floors, new carpet in the linoleum bedroom upstairs, installation of a new bathroom fan, tilling a new garden space, and more landscaping. The house looks amazing!
All these things have been completed just in time for Ariana to start her full time job at the local hospital as a cardiac nurse. Now we can sit back, relax, and enjoy our living space…at least until the next project presents itself. Guests welcome…
- The living room was the first room we completed. Now a relaxing, and inviting space.
- Kitchen floor before
- Removing linoleum lining the walls wasn’t easy.
- Patching peeling paint
- Priming, and ceiling painting day. Somehow Nick and Ariana’s relationship survived this long day.
- Kitchen floor after…cork 🙂
- Come share a meal with us.
- Listening room, toy room…not sure what it’s future holds, but it’s got gorgeous floors.
- Master Bedroom freshly painted “Liveable Green”
- Saying goodbye to years of carpet and dust mites while “flying the flag” for safety
- Trail maintenance, saving the trees from nasty vines
- Look, there is actually a path under there
- Installing a new fan for mold prevention
- We pretty much locked Bob in this bathroom for three days until it was bleached, sanded, primed, and painted. Many “choice” words were overheard during this time.
- So clean! No mold!
- Before…
- After
- Cozy guest room, with sewing nook.
- Upstairs bath before. Blue with mold on the ceiling
- Upstairs bath after. Clean ceilings, and yellow.
