Well - the first (of hopefully many more) snow day! I walked to the fire hall, but no port for my picture card. Ah shucks! We have been hard at work wrapping up projects, tackling new ones, and still persevering on others.
Imagine a picture of a beautiful landing....herringbone pattern of pine and looking beautiful! We have just the bottom two steps to tackle now.
Wow - look at that desk tucked under the stairs! Thomas has set up his computer under the stairs and is enjoying his video games once again after a year-long hiatus.
The basement is all trimmed out! We were both home on Veterans Day and tackled a whole lot of the last bits of trim. We still need to hit around the doors, but it looks so good.
...including all the trim up in "my" room - the craft/guest room downstairs. With the trim up, we emptied it of all the boxes from the office/closet in the trailer and did a thorough floor cleaning before moving furniture back in. Now the tedium of unpacking boxes and choosing where they go - not my favorite task admittedly.
And Thomas was hard at work welding the last of the banister. It is beautiful and compliments the shelves. With the rocking chair in front of it, it looks like a beautiful spot to cozy up with a book. While he installed that, I worked on a trim piece we created to fit above our electric fire place upstairs - just to give it a more finished look.
So much accomplished, and so nice to put our feet up and enjoy the wood stove downstairs in the chilly weather we've been having. I did get the kitchen cupboard doors prepped for painting, but the weather just hasn't cooperated yet. More projects abound, but we'll chip away at them as we can.
AND THE GREAT NEWS: the trailer sold rather quickly to someone nearby, so hopefully our view to the north will be changing in the next few months! In the mud we have now, I wouldn't want to move that thing, but in time...
