Well our renovations are going well.
The siding is mostly on all three sides. The front will be done next week after the front bay window is put in.
Here are some pictures for you to see how it is coming. We will also be adding dark red shutters on all the windows except the back and the new sun room.
Despite the fact that Dad has suggested that the he is liking the blue on the front, the gray looks so good.
Here is also a picture of the new windows in the dining room and in the computer room downstairs.
The day I came home and walked in the dining room with the new window it was amazing how light and airy it felt.
I love all the light we now have between the window and the sun room.
We put the first coat of paint on the sun room tonight (we primed last night).
Dad will put on the second coat tomorrow morning before starting work.
Our contractor will be working on the trim on the windows tomorrow.
The electrician will be coming on Friday to install our lighting, our electric outlets and our ceiling fan.
Next week the tile guy will hopefully be coming and our sun room will mostly be done. We will still have to paint all the trim (but we might get that all done on Friday) and the doors, but mostly it will be done.
Next step will be to move all our living room into the sun room so we can rip out the rest of the carpet and paint there. Our new railing will go in on the 28th (assuming we get the piano out before that).
I can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel here – but there is still more to do, if only putting our house back to right.
You can all then come and visit.
