A Light at the End of the Tunnel?

We're only two weeks away from moving out of the apartment and into the house...only thing is the house isn't livable just yet.  The last few weeks have all been focused on the upstairs and we've painted all the rooms and ceilings, refinished the claw-foot tub, leveled the kitchen floor and started the tile and rearranged the laundry area and added a spot for the fridge in the kitchen.  There's still quite a bit to do...refinishing the floors, installing the plumbing fixtures in the bathroom, fixing a couple windows and replacing one, installing a water heater and washer/dryer, moving the fridge upstairs, completing the tile in the kitchen & bathroom, moving back in the oven range, and plumbing for and installing a new dishwasher.


Can't wait to have one level down with one more to go!


Replacing the bad siding on the front of the house...


Some Bondo work by the contractor on the front columns that used to be crooked...


Before and after pictures of the tub...also the third picture is a stamp on the bottom showing the tub was cast on July 26, 1924...





You can just start to see the new blue/green color of the house...
