Progress

How do you like my new terlit?  This is what happens when you get old.  You look at plain old white toilets and think, how boring, let's go for it.  I used to get wild with me, now I get wild with my toilet.  C'est la vie!

My shower is working too.  It's so gratifying to finally see water coming out of the right place in this room.  If you remember, 8 months ago, this room had some bad water issues.

And now it is soon to be a beautiful new bathroom.

My new kitchen pendant light is in place and my kitchen faucet is installed too.  The sink still needs to be polished but I am going to love having my old soapstone sink in the new kitchen. It is huge and deep and will handle big pots easily.

I also have a shelf running the length of the appliance wall and my pot filler is in place over the new range.

 

I added deadbolts to the new basement doors.

These might not look like much but they gave me fits over a 3 day period and took endless hours to get the right ones. Sometimes the littlest details are the ones that drive you crazy.

And I would like to announce that Willie came though his 4 month recovery period like a champ.  This little boy could not have been a better patient.  He met every challenge with a wagging tail and and the hope of a treat.  He can finally play with his sister which might have been the saddest part of his recovery. Puppies should never have to be told to not play with each other and it made me the saddest mama in the world to have to tell them not to play.  But Willie is back and all is right with the world!
