This is the laundry room, we have to replace the back door, it is all broken and patched up…urm…we still have to buy one first…we are having a hard time making up our minds what kind to put here….

this is the other side of the laundry room, where the washer/dryer will be setting up shop!

Here is the bathroom we will be sharing with our son…Mr. Undaunted has been working some evenings out here after work…he finished the plumbing this week and last night put two rows of flooring down in the living room…YEAH for him…he is the greatest!
Ew! This is the smaller bathroom near the two bedrooms on the right….the vanity is leaving…so wave goodbye!

Final coat of patched holes: (This is actually finished…but I have no photo of that…it is painted and lovely! That huge box in the background is our new tub and surround we need to install soon)

the actual “master” bedroom, which the three girls will share until next year when Hannah leaves for college…then we will swap with the two remaining girls! Both bathrooms are in a high state of disrepair for the moment…the “master” shower is disgusting and doesn’t work and we still need to rip it out…we already tore out the tub, we posted about that here…
It is hard to believe but that was exactly one month ago tomorrow…wow! It kind of feels like an eternity ago…smile…

look at those cuts…he is the master of detail! He has installed this “floating” snap together flooring before…he is just thankful you don’t have to “glue” it anymore like the old days…

This weekend is our neighborhood garage sale…so we have been sorting everything in the attic and paring down….paring way down….because not everything will fit and we could use the money for a new stove for Bessie…we will see….
I suggest a gray steel door on the laundry room exit and a full glass door in front of it so you can leave the steel door open and see outside when you want to.
It all looks quite amazing and wonderful after a month of solid work.
Had you ever thought that maybe you were doing this for someone else to buy?
Buying and renovating and profiting is a good side business.
we purchased it as owner-occupant, not as a flipper…that gives us first priority in purchasing it…
plus, I love the 10 acres, it is beautiful and what I have always wanted….sigh…
you could not pay me enough to do what we are doing and not live in it…hahahaha…no way!
I *so* wish I could come to your garage sale! Who knows what awesomeness I could come away with, much to Jim’s chagrin! ;o)
oooh, please do!
hey…do you want those bookcases? the large oak one in Grace’s room and any of the smaller ones?
You can have your stove back from here if you want it. It works fine, just needs the door tightened and even that doesn’t interfere with baking. It wouldn’t cost you anything and you could use it until whenever.
We’re going to get one of those flat top models so you’re welcome to this. We’d hoped to wait for the govt program on appliances Dec. 1 — if you can’t wait, we’ll let you have it when you need it.
No biggie if you don’t want it. But it’s free.
hey mamsie, wanna come to our garage sale?
I’ve got other appts but thank you. I told Mom about it in case she and Keun might want to.
What a great find on the sink. I would love to have one in my half bath. The floor is gorgeous.

I think I just lost last week with this aching leg & I missed all these wonderful pics, so am catching up! The “transformation” of Bessing is amazing – you are all going to have muscls on your muscles! For sure glass on that laundry room door so you can look out at that wonderful “forest” & see all the local critters! A practical note – as we found out, there are subtle differences in door sizes it’s hard to find out about, is there a salvage place for old mobiles? How about Blessed Acres for Bessie’s new name?
