Project Redux

The project is pretty much complete. It's been more than a year in the planning, but less than six months since we "broke ground" on our construction project. The house is in the process of being painted (it's blue. no, no, it's gray. or blue) and we should had pictures of that in just a few days.

This process has taught us a few things:

1. Trust your intuition. If it feels like you'll like a piece, design, idea or color, it will probably suit you. And that's all that matters.
2. Cats always find new nooks to investigate. And they look damn cute snooping around.
3. We can do some of this stuff all-by-selves. I mean, since April, we've repaired a garage door lock, built a garden box and landscaping step, replaced a few light fixtures and spackled & painted up a storm. Even watching other people construct things can be empowering.

Here's a final photo set. For more details, you'e just going to have to come visit.

Murky Glass

You know what's funny? About a month ago, I actually believed we'd have a shower door already. It's Sep 18th and we finally have our shower door installed after 6 visits, two glass mistakes and one bad idea of customer service.

Let's see how this reporting people to the Better Business Bureau thingy works...
