We have been doing a lot of traveling, family stuff mostly. Weddings, celebrations, graduations. That means we have not accomplished a great deal on our house. We have finally gotten the laundry room to a point where we installed the washer and dryer. For the first time in 54 years the dryer will not vent directly into the house. I can't tell you how happy that makes me...especially on those hot summer days!
Mark has shifted to cabinet building mode so the hall bath is his next area to conquer. We have designed and redesigned the cabinets. So much changes when you actually begin work and have to adjust for all of the realities of the actual room. We are staying simple, using a maple veneered plywood for all the cabinetry. I don't think we will even stain it.
Living in a house during renovation is a challenge and takes a bit of suspension of your normal standards of neatness, order, etc. I feel like we are working one of those complicated Chinese puzzles, but on a full scale. Luckily I have the ability to envision what will be, so I just have to remember to donn my rose-colored glasses when I am feeling frustrated.
