Tuesday, right?

Wow. That was an actual guess and I just checked and it’s literally Wednesday. I will never be able to prove this to you all, but take my word for it.

We are currently in the stage of this job that I like to call “The Total Worst”. That is to say, the total worst part of a situation that overall is amazing, so still not the world’s worst, but you know, the awful middle part of something that’s pretty great. Did I mention I’m high on floor stain fumes?

The coming together stage feels incredibly close, but as of today we are basically camping indoors, which I’ve been trying to think of a word for. If glamping is glamorous camping then we are… Riving? (Rough living.) Hamping? (Home camping.) Seriously, it’s the fumes.

I had big hopes to keep this blog orderly and compartmentalized but today I throw caution to the wind. Which according to the weather forecast will also be filled with snow any minute now.

Instead, enjoy this scattered glimpse into our lives (and the house) today. Everything you see is exactly how it really is.

A new kitchen in the works. And PS it’s going to be beautiful.

The future home of one very amazing sink.

Can’t wait to get some paint on this wall.

Fire hazards and coffee making.

An old newspaper found behind the cabinets. And yes, those are The Beatles.

Wish list.

Quarantine floor refinishing area. Keds on guard.

One day this will be a dining room.

A door is born.

These floors need some TLC. But I still love them.

The new door. Even better from the outside.

Refinishing floors means no dust which means, no heat. Yay!

Upstairs bathroom gets a make-over.

One day I will take a warm bath in here.

Sweet homeless dresser from Brimfield.

The great divide & small bedroom #1.

Pillow storage and small bedrooms #2 and 3.

The master bedroom. On the way to perfection.

Plaster makes everything better.

Winter view from the sunroom. Sun nowhere to be found.

Where I’m sitting. Right this very moment.
