Saturday:
We finally got full power yesterday, save for a few circuits that were bad, which will be replaced on Monday....so, no hot water yet, though we had some yesterday and it was really nice!

I spent yesterday afternoon painting most of the downstairs, putting in the track lighting, and seeding the back lawn where the destruction of burying power lines occurred. My only hope is that the grass grows back before our neighbors show up!! Even though the digging happened on village property, the lawn is still their back yard.

Here are some photos of the living room stained a soft driftwood gray with whitewashed trim. The floor is all prepped for the cork, but we are waiting for a good dry day to do it.



We have sliding drawers in the kitchen! Each cabinet has sliding maple drawers for pots and pans. Cabinet doors will be made in Larry's shop and then fitted up in the kitchen.
Josh had to redo the drawers in the kitchen because the others were rickety and held together with glue. These ones are already filled with things!
Today is more painting, (kitchen today) I have three walls left to do. I will then probably go and spend more than I should on a stove for the kitchen Jenn-Aire smooth top with central downdraft fan. There is one in Belfast for $1000 off retail and I think it's a good deal. Might have to take the white fridge back in favor of a black one. sigh.....

Greg is working on stairs today....he has all the materials, and I think he can get it done today.
