Accomplishment

I know, you are sick of hearing about the floor, but I want the memories to print out someday. Paul finished laying the floor late that night, edges and all. We were told 3 days to do it ourselves as opposed to hiring the *professionals* to do it. Yeah….right. You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to lay this floor and all you need for tools was a good hammer, block of wood, measuring tape and a chop saw.   IMG_0003 

Now I pick out wall color, then paint and the dining room is finished until April,which is when the wood stove can be shut down long enough to build our hearth.

Next project is to start building the new hallway upstairs and finishing the new baby’s nursery before the little one arrives. Will the house ever be done? I doubt it.

Tomorrow is Laundry Day again, and as last week, I am looking forward to digging in!

It also helps to have level floors. Poor jeff did our floors himself. Where itvwas flat went nice and smooth. Where it was not, well. By the way our floor matches yours!
