This week was mostly spent finishing up the details of moving, hanging pictures and the like. The boys came and worked on the columns, but it's still too cold to paint them. (thinking I'm going to end up doing that this summer). They still have to dog kennel to do, and then we're officially done with the contractor, and none too soon. They've been great, but things have started to fall apart at the end and we'd just as soon be done. The electricians came and changed out the service panel on the old house, and also rewired the power to the shop and brought the rest of the sound system. We now have dolby surround sound that would blow your butt off the couch, thankyouverymuch. The plumber was here to put in the garbage disposal switch, and also fix a little leak a the old place. Our mail started getting forwarded, but our garbage can got forgotten.......
It snowed here this week too, unusual, and just really messy for a day or 2. Good excuse to finish up some inside stuff......
Things we're loving about this house.....
the laundry/mud room. It's serving it's purpose of being the mud collector and critter hang out place. Yesterday, we went over to the old house and cleaned up in the yard for a while. It was really nice to just throw the dirty clothes in the wash on the way by.
We're also loving our under cabinet lighting.....
lighted walk in closets
and the one thing I would TOTALLY do again.....
heated towel bar!!!!
We still have a lot of work to do on both houses. The old one goes on the market after the holidays. We're having a hard time trying to figure out who would buy it. Our problem? We keep comparing it to the new house........Not EVEN close. We just need to do our cleanup chores and let the realestate gals do their job.
This week, Merry Christmas. We're not anticipating much getting done, and we really need a break from contractors anyway. We'll be working on the porches, the old house, and setting the hot tub back up.
