After a month

So it's been a month of steady work. We've actually got a lot done. However, it seems the more we do, the less the place looks done. it's kind of painful, really. Probably the most impressive thing we've done is pour concrete in the rooms we'll put wood in. This is what it looks like when you pour buckets of concrete. It makes giant puddles that all meld together. It was messy work... heavy, too. Poor guy had to carry it all up himself.

This on the right is the "before" picture. It's a lot different, if you see them side by side. :)

We also got some recess lighting put in. That helps a LOT.

We're also working in the kitchen. The doors are off and we're um... degreasing 35 years worth of , well, I'm pretty sure it's spaghetti sauce off of them. Then they'll be painted a lovely creamy off white with an interesting granite. Pretty hard to picture, huh. Yeah, I'm having a tough time, too.

The wood arrives tomorrow, so I'll have some pics of it starting to look good soon!!!! Wish us luck.
