Closer yet

As we met with prospective renters tonight we were excited to have most of the inside work done and to know that since they have no car, the automatic gate installation is not the highest priority. Not a lot to show, but here are a few more shots. While Mike was working on finishing the backsplash on our side (I'll do grout tomorrow) I was doing touch-up paint & cleaning on the rental side.

I love the glass tiles - they are just enough for me. Our kitchen.

Driveway was almost finished - and may be modified now.

Touch-up and second coats on trim have made a real difference.

Moving ahead

Today Mike worked to nearly finish the driveway area for the rental side - but I forgot to take those pictures. And I now remember other things that I haven't pictured, so tomorrow should have a few extras. I've posted a couple of other things tonight, so scroll down for some catch-up.

We're supposed to be finishing the rental side BUT I get a backsplash too!

I can't wait to see it finished!


Looks like curtains - but it means the cleaning & painting of these windows & doors is DONE!


Three helpers worked a long day in the miserable heat & we have a finished wall!!
From the neighbor's side.

May work

Four months since I posted I see! Since we had a good working day today I'll post a few other things. There were actually lots more things done while I was gone in May but I just didn't take pictures. Still haven't figured out how to post in proper order, so I'll just have separate posts for the sets of stuff.
Pantry got started while I was gone to Egypt.

Mike rearranged the bedroom - MUCH more usable.

Early May, Mike finished getting the gate for our driveway to work.
