All things Bathroom and Chandelier

Lookie- this is the chandelier that was in the dining room. It now lives in the living room. There's even power going to it.   And light bulbs. (I should get an updated picture sometime soon.)


Here's the kitchen and dining room.

View of the kitchen.  It's a bit cramped now while we don't have proper cabinets- but that's ok. Sink will be on the left. 

Laundry room and where the ladder is, the pantry. 


There's a hole above the fridge that will eventually have plexiglass over it for natural light. I can't reach any cabinets over the fridge anyway so I'd prefer to have light.  There won't be much. But different anyhow. 

Window from the laundry room. 

Charlie helping in his room. 

Boys' room with the wall enclosed now- so much cozier. 

Bathroom primed. 




The boys watching a movie while Mommy paints.  
Bunny hat and cheese face.


Measuring up. 
Cutting in the edges. 

LOOK! It's in OUR house not the showroom!! And the walls are blue (the flash washes it out). "Pool Party" is the color. 

Check it out! The toilet not only works but has been upgraded to dual flush. 

Blue. 
And that door. Oh my.  I'm in the process of painting it but first working on removing a few more layers before getting the primer on it. Underneath was a DARKER purple...if you can believe it.  I imagine it was too dark for the wee bathroom that had no natural light.  Led to middle of the night bumping.

    I love the window above the fridge! Wow, awesome idea. More light is always good.

    I can't believe how big your boys look, especially Charlie.

    I love your windows :) It's fun to see everything coming along.

      I was pretty sick from Wednesday on last week and am still recovering. I don't have any new pictures and there's not a whole lot that is picture worthy except the kitchen floor and maybe the bathroom door (that was left primed but unfinished due to me being ill). Soon Soon. The goal this week is to clean up (a never ending chore when remodeling) and HOPEFULLY get everything out of the way so we can maybe start moving furniture in. And phone line- I think Sean is itching to have internet there...silly boy :)

One of my mental blocks as a writer is trying to figure out my audience. That was always a tricky question for me to answer when writing papers in college? Who am I writing this paper for, exactly? The college professor who is grading me, obviously. But what about the blog? Who am I writing for? Is it just for me and then I launch it out into the world in case someone else needed what I did? Is it a convenient way to communicate with family both near and far? To honor those who have come before me and those who come after? Is my rambling for friends? People with depression? Parents? Women? Mormon? Ex-Mormon? People with chronic pain? (I would argue we all live with chronic pain but I digress...) Will my words find English majors? (They are likely appalled with my lack of editing.) Poets? Artists? Quilters? Lovers of words? Spiritual people, who wonder if it is true that they belong everywhere and nowhere? Thirty-somethings? Teens? The walking wounded w...

The House that Jack built.

Image
Well I don't know for sure if his name was Jack.  His last name might have been Nielson.  A man, Somebody Nielson came by a few weeks ago and said this was the house his grandfather lived in (and I think built).  He confirmed that the floor in the living room is indeed the original flooring--I'll have to get a better picture because the craftsmanship is beautiful.  This grandson that stopped by (old enough to be 10 or 15 years my parents' senior) enjoyed seeing the house again.  Then just last week when we were finishing the screws on the deck and cutting open windows another old resident came by.  She was tickled to see that someone was fixing up the place.  Her mom bought it from my husband's grandpa (who bought it and flipped it some 20 years ago).  People from all over town have commented on it.  I'm sure glad to see that our hard work is appreciated by the community.  I'd love to get the stories these walls could tell. (Let's be ho...

Magical Mystery Tour

So I've been holding off on showing pictures of our house until we're more settled in.  As in CLEANED UP. But that may be a while.  I know a few people who want to see it in all it's "glory".  We are in fact living here.  Which explains the mess.  (I know I should be cleaning instead of blogging but I have all day to do that and the boychild is napping...) Also after listening to "Gifts of Imperfection" (audio book ) I've decided to show you the REAL thing.  I did make my bed before taking pictures. But that's it.  Here she is, with no further ado (and still no name) OUR HOUSE:  When you first walk in you will see this: Our living room. Conduit on the ceiling means our house won't burn down from crazy old wiring.  Looking back to the front door now.  (All of the decorations on the mantel are so I can see them all and take stock of what I want where.)  (Still standing at the door) to your left we have the craft/play/c...
