moving right along...putt...putt

I spoke too soon about the last layer of floor leveler. It turned out that it didn't cure properly so Aaron had to scrape up the top layer and redo it plus 1 more. Arg! I just want a washing machine! We had to make sure to wait the proper amount of time so it would cure all the way. So we got a few other projects done.
We painted the living room finally!! What a relief to have that minty green gone!

Since we were still waiting, while I painted the living room, Aaron tore into the kichen. Literally.

The cabinet came down along with part of the ceiling. Don't worry though- it was intentional. A slight modification is necessary for the new design.

The view from the kitchen is so much better now that the cabinet is gone. Or at least it will be when there isn't a washing machine in the middle of the room! Later he got to work patching that up.
Next we replaced our giant ceiling fan with cool track lighting. The pieces don't come pre-bent so Aaron took on that project himself.


It was a little trickier than the box led us to believe, but we worked it out. It looks so good! The fan is going to our bedroom to replace the white one we had in there.

The floor was finally dry enough to prep the closet. I got it painted, then we drained the hot water tank again so we could get the floor under it...And then the floor went in!
And most importantly our dearly missed washer/dryer! What a beautiful sight.


With that back in place Aaron set to work organizing the living room. It's not your conventional set up, but it feels great to us!


Next the kitchen!
