Busy busy busy!

Wow--so much has been going on!
Over Valentine's Day weekend our wood floors were all finished. Don't they look pretty? We used to have wall-to-wall carpeting before but that was really just a huge magnet for cat and dog hair.
My favorite door is still my french door/pocket door combination and it looks so much better without the protective stuff over the glass.

After the floors were finished, I spent a week cleaning out kitchen cabinets -- the kitchen is the one room we did not clear out except for furniture. All our cabinets were filled with our dishes plus whatever else we could jam in there. Despite the plastic draping, there was dust everywhere! And it took a really long time to clean.

We actually decided to camp out in our home on Thursday February 19th. It was cold and we slept on an air mattress but it was so wonderful to be back in our home!

Final inspection was that Friday, the 20th. We had quite a few inspectors and all we need now is the actual certificate of occupancy.

I wanted to move in right away but as timing would have it, we were off to Utah for a week of skiing the next day.

After we returned from Utah we moved in and we've been living there for a week now! It's a mess of boxes and furniture in the wrong rooms but it is wonderful to be back home!!!
