Slow and Steady

Building is a slow process!! Extreme Home Make Over and Holmes on Homes makes it seem like all the different trades show up at the same time and work through dinner to get the job done. Let me tell you–that ain’t so!! But we have made some progress!

We now have insulation and drywall!!

And we have dust–holy cow do we have dust! My lungs can attest to that too cough, cough, cough!! Even with plastic up the dust is everywhere! They don’t show that on TV either!!

Ginger’s room (the diagonal flooring) really looks small with it opened up!

I love the wood we picked out for the ceiling! With all it’s grain and knots it looks even better than we thought!

Here is a bedroom shot.

The metal roof on the screen porch has also been installed. It’s hard to tell from the photos but it is a copper color and looks so pretty in the sun. That is, when the sun actually shines around here!

Slowly but surely we are moving along. Hopefully sometime this Spring we will be able to “move in”!!

  1. This is looking more and more amazing, every time you write about it. I cannot wait for M to bring me over to see this in person! I absolutely love the wood ceilings! How awesome!

  2. OMG Kristen! This is going to be so beautiful! I know exactly what you are talking about having lived through many a remodel. It is very trying. That said I would still love to have my house remodeled. I just love your porch, you are going to enjoy it so much. Tom tells me he saw it and it is fantastic.
