Moving Day is Saturday!

Plans are to move the majority of the rest of our stuff on Saturday.  There will still be work to complete and things to move but we will begin sleeping at 813 Martinwood Lane!

A Productive Saturday

Andrew, Katherine and Aaron came down for another Saturday of work at the house and we got lots done!  Thanks, guys, for another great day of work.
Katherine and I worked outside cleaning up pinestraw - Katherine cleaned off the roof!

We collected all the pine straw onto a big piece of plastic and then took Aaron for a ride down to the street to dump it all there to be picked up by the garbage collectors.

A really big hurray! - the tiles in the shower are repaired and replaced.  This was a much much bigger job than we ever would have guessed.  Now Paul has to grout it and then we can add the fixtures.

The quarter round has been added around the baseboard.  Not the whole house is done but got a good start.  It got dark too fast and we couldn't see to run the saw outside anymore.

Andrew putting up a new outside light fixture - done with the help of his great wife!

The light in the 'pantry' wouldn't work and found out the fixture had to be replaced.  Now it works!!

Put down luan board at the front entrance to prepare for new tiles.

The tiles are down - now we just need to add trim around the edges.

Moving Progress

The guest bedroom in Leeds is basically empty as moving progresses.

There are a few things in the living room at Martinwood Lane.

The 'man cave' has become the dumping ground for all boxes of things for yard sale, for attic, and for 'don't know where to put it' stuff.

The other project I'm working on is new covers for the dining room chairs.  Got the backs done - now for the seat covers.
