Shirley's Soldiers!

Ev's family came over after a great NYC Fundraiser

Happy Fall!!!

HOME STRETCH!!!!!!!!!

Soapy Mess

Since the sewer guy came yesterday and fixed what seemed to be the problem, I took to Cinderella work and decided to do the wash. Everything is going smoothly until I hear Ev screaming. I run downstairs and our carpets seem to be getting washed, in soap! On the one hand, we're saving on carpet cleaning (I'm kidding) on the other, DAMNIT detergent is spewing from the shower drain and the basement floor is soaking wet. Good times ahead, again.

So so so so so so close!!!!

Shower tiles in, floor tiles in, vanity and toilet it!! Now it's just picking paint, moving electricity then party!!!

MINOR SET BACK - POO FLOW

So our sewer decided to back up. Real sexy. Everything that goes down the toilet and sink comes shooting up into the shower drain, it's like a mini Vegas fountain. Smells delicious too!!

GETTING CLOSERRRRR

Weekend of Working

We had a great weekend fixing up the joint. We washed cars, planted and painted the porch. We're looking for a cottage feel - another room for reading, writing and chatting. And by we I mean Evan did all the work and I watched... I kid I kid I worked too!
