Random Progress

Sorry I haven't been keeping up with updates on the house. It's been INSANE around here! Both of my households are in complete chaos and we're all exhausted. Praying things slow down again, soon.

We've been going full-speed ahead on the house and have been working like crazy to get the painting finished. The next three weeks or so are going to be even more nuts, but thankfully it's up to someone else to get the bulk of the work done for us. In the next few weeks, we'll be expecting an electrician (tomorrow morning, I just found out), the flooring installers, and the window installer. Boom, boom, boom. Hopefully they all don't decide to show up at the same time. The electrician will be doing the most work; installing ceiling fans in three rooms, fixing the wiring in our kitchen, installing a fan in the bathroom, and putting in some more outlets in various places around the house. As for flooring, we went with Cher this weekend and chose our carpets and vinyl (carpet for the living room, vinyl for the dining area, and carpet for our room and the hall). It was a very spendy endeavor, but we did the best we could without settling, I feel. The window guy will be installing a total of four windows (all in the living room/dining area) and a storm door for the front door. Whew! Have at it, guys! We're pooped!

Thankfully, we're done with the bulk of the painting. The boys' room was the last of the "priority" rooms to be painted and boy - was it a beast! Just need to finish painting the cupboard doors and shelves and that room is finished. If we have any sort of umph before we move in, the spare room needs to be painted - it's still very pink, which now causes me to twitch.

Since I wasn't able to keep up with picture posts, I decided to just make online albums for each room. I'll try to update on when these albums have been - well, updated. Some of these photos have already been posted, so no - you're not experiencing deja vu.
