| Complete! |
[Mar. 14th, 2006|11:26 pm] |
The long journal-update delay results from long hours of moving in--but the move, and the house, are now done. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Carpets! |
[Jan. 21st, 2006|09:53 am] |
The house is almost, almost finished at this point. Read on for all the latest! ( more... ) |
|
|
| More daily! |
[Jan. 14th, 2006|01:46 am] |
The rapid pace continues. Today the electrician, hvac and carpenter teams all took turns at the house. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Close! Close!! |
[Jan. 12th, 2006|11:40 pm] |
Lights and decks and... wow. It's just moving quickly here at the end. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Floors and Doors |
[Jan. 10th, 2006|07:09 pm] |
Things are definitely accelerating at the house! ( more... ) |
|
|
| Long time, no update |
[Jan. 7th, 2006|10:03 pm] |
After a good solid week, I have only four snapshots to show. That's partly because I'm lazy, and partly because work has been going slowly in these first days after Christmas. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Staining! |
[Dec. 28th, 2005|08:03 pm] |
Met the swanstone installer today as he finished the first half of the bathroom material installation. And the carpenters were quite busy, finishing up a number of projects inside. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Another Minor Update |
[Dec. 26th, 2005|01:19 pm] |
Gutters, mantles and, um, well, gutters and mantles. ( more... ) |
|
|
| More Holiday Trimmings |
[Dec. 23rd, 2005|09:01 pm] |
These pictures are actually two days out of date; we didn't get a chance to drop by the new house today and look for changes, so expect newer stuff tomorrow. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Tiny update. And videos. |
[Dec. 19th, 2005|11:12 pm] |
With all the snow, the changes have been pretty slow. But the kids and I took a moment to grab some videos, for those with sufficient downloading bandwidth. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Countertops! |
[Dec. 14th, 2005|08:13 pm] |
The counters are in! They're different than we'd expected (which fact, ironically, we had anticipated), but they're quite nice. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Ah, December in Pennsylvania |
[Dec. 12th, 2005|06:55 pm] |
Last winter, snow didn't really arrive here in PA until mid January. This year, we saw snow before Thanksgiving and have lots of it now--several weeks before Christmas. ( more... ) |
|
|
| More Trimmings |
[Dec. 7th, 2005|12:03 am] |
Snow's here--on time this year (last year it came *late*)--so all the work at the house is going on inside for now. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Some Trim for Christmas |
[Dec. 3rd, 2005|10:21 am] |
Finally, after a long wait, things are starting to happen again. The countertops are being cut ("from the living rock!", as it were), window sills and baseboards are going up, closets are getting shelving, and the electrician has activated almost all the lights. ( more... ) |
|
|
| A Short Week |
[Nov. 28th, 2005|09:47 pm] |
We've just returned from a week-long vacation; because of the holiday, though, only three days of progress were made at the house. Still, there are some things to get excited about. ( more... ) |
|
|
| More Cabinets |
[Nov. 18th, 2005|07:03 pm] |
The kitchen cabinets are now in place, minus the countertops. Latest photos are from the decent camera, instead of my cell phone. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Cabinets Begin |
[Nov. 17th, 2005|04:56 pm] |
I promised a cabinet shot or two today, so here they are--but it's a little early to get anything substantial snapped. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Mid-November Update |
[Nov. 15th, 2005|10:55 pm] |
The last week has been slow going, but things are definitely picking up as of today. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Painting |
[Nov. 11th, 2005|03:12 pm] |
The change in weather (from nice to freeeezing) has prevented the painters from finishing the exterior yet, which is just as well because we need to rethink the trim color. But work inside continues. ( more... ) |
|
|
| Painting Begins |
[Nov. 3rd, 2005|07:13 pm] |
Nature is busily painting trees, and Manuel is busily painting our house. Go, Manuel, go! ( more... )
In addition to today's snapshots, I've also got another 30MB of short videos for the very dedicated reader. |
