Well, it's been quite some time since I've posted an entry and there's been lots of progress! Charlie is still working almost all the time he is not at his day job and the house is beautiful because of it. All the walls in the stairways and landings have been painted a khaki color, the foyer has been painted a rosy/terra cotta color, and the kitchen has been painted a light yellow. The rosy/terra cotta color was on the foyer walls some time ago---Charlie found the color inside the ceiling while working on the ceiling. Several of the outlets have been repaired and of course all new electrical and ductwork was put nto the kitchen before drywalling, The front porch roof, back porch roof, and mud room roof will all be replaced sometime in late spring/early summer.
Once Charlie is finished with repairing the hurricane damage from the 2011 summer on the foyer wall, he will move into the kitchen and install the wood flooring. I have to admit I am DYING without my kitchen! My mom figured out today it's been 7 months since we had a functional kitchen! When I think of how Charlie has done most of this work himself, it jsut amazes me.....it's been just over a year since we bought this house and with the exception of the heating bills, it's been a wonderful year!!!
