Finished at Last - January 23, 2012

Well, it's taken a bit longer than we had anticipated, but we've finally finished our latest house project.  It began with demolition of the master bath on December 31 and ended yesterday with the installation of the shower door.  So here are the before and afters.

Here's the old master bath.   The photos actually make it look pretty good.  It was really awful.

And here's the new bathroom.

We also had a new floor put in the laundry room.  We planned to replace the laundry tub but in the end decided not to put one in at all.  We also had a pocket door put in between the kitchen and laundry room to cut down on the noise of the washer.

Freezing Fog - January 22, 2013

For several weeks now we've had cold weather, with an interesting weather phenomenon called 'freezing fog.'  It's nasty stuff, but does create a beautiful landscape. 

Chaos Again - January 8, 2012

We find ourselves in chaos again, in the midst of another (hopefully the last) house project.  This time we're updating the master bath and the laundry room.  So we now have a laundry tub in the library, a door in the guest room, and another door and the washer and dryer in the living room.

The shower has been done, and tomorrow the countertops and floors will be done.  Then it's just a few final details before it all gets put back together, probably by Friday.

Then I get to paint!
