Moving Day

Today was moving day for all cabinets, bookcases, and "stuff" in the parts of the house where Pieter will refinish the floors.  Angela helped all day.  We finished the plumbing in the morning--it was a HUGE help to have a second set of hands and PVC cement brushes for the bigger pipes in the basement--and then we moved everything in about three hours the afternoon.

I didn't take any action shots, but thought you might like to see some of the results.

Lots more room for dining

Looks like a bachelor pad for sure now!

Look! We can walk behind the piano!

That is three cabinets and a coffee table deep

Eleanor, your room took the brunt of the small stuff.

If you are lucky I will clear your bed before you return.

You already heard that we finished the plumbing.  OK, almost finished.  The bathtub leaked slowly at the drain, so I need to redo it with thread sealant and try again.

Yesterday I worked primarily on wiring.  I have nearly all the wire pulled now.  The vent fans are completely installed and wired.  With the plumbing and the wiring rough-ins almost ready I am only a few hours from being able to put all the tools away and do a serious cleanup.

I also made time this weekend to finish the last batch of cabinet doors and drawer fronts for the girls' room:

  1. We are in shock. Did you sleep this weekend? The amount of productivity is amazing. You're amazing. And many, many thanks to Ang!
