Continued progress

We are living in the house but there is still work happening. The bathroom vanities are finished now, and on Saturday, the trim work in our ensuite was finished, so now I can do more putty work and the touch up paint, and then our bedroom/bathroom will be done.

We have done some work in the basement as well. With the cooler temps happening we needed to move the washer and dryer into the house so that things wouldn't freeze. We painted the walls in the laundry room, and put down some flooring, and then moved the appliances into place. There is more work to be done in there but I am doing laundry there today.

The basement bathroom is also making progress, with a finished vanity, and paint on the walls. We need to get some flooring in so that the plumbers can come back and install the toilet.

And we have also painted one coat in the guest bedroom, but this week looks sunny and dry so hopefully we can get lots of harvest done. That means house stuff will be on hold for a bit but I can still keep working on projects that I can do alone while Kerry is out. There is trim to finish, and closets to paint, the garden to clean out, paper work to keep on top of, and pumpkins to cook up so that we can enjoy fresh pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving. We are back from our trip out to BC to meet our new little granddaughter and back into the swing of things at home. Shae is doing well, and is in the Abbottsford hospital since Thursday, but we are all hopeful that she and Kristy can go home soon. She is eating well and gaining weight and we miss her already. It was fun to be with Norah and we quite enjoyed our time with her. After not seeing her for 3 months we noticed how much she had grown and how much more she was talking. It was great to see Kristy and Graham too, but wish we could have spent a little more time with them at their place, but were glad to be there with them in Kelowna. We enjoyed the lovely weather in Kelowna, and the exploring we could do, and especially the friends who put us up, and fed us, and other friends we met for coffee or lunch.

The bathroom looks great. Yeah, I don't think you will be out of things to do for awhile yet. Enjoy.
