Week 7 - Hot and Cold

Having trouble understanding the title this time around? Let me explain. Lately, Steph and I have been buying lots of goodies for the house as if we have money burning in our pockets. Unfortunately, it's starting to get chilly out.

Before Black Friday, we like everyone else were hunting for good buys. Sure enough, we bought something nice and early in the morning:

- Washer, Dryer, Pedestals, and a Warranty. :)

This week, we went out after looking through the newspapers and found this wonderful deal:

- This sectional can sit 6-7 comfortably for $800. Luckily or unlucky for us, the sale ended tomorrow, so it wasn't an impulse buy. :) The ottoman was another $200 on sale as well. Fun fun fun! The actual couch for sale can be found here and the ottoman here.

Enough of the stuff going in the house... show us the actual house!

Ok. But first, a little humor from our builder:

- Was waiting for us this morning. Glad to see I'm 'in shape'.


- Noticed that the windows have been open in the house. The reason why is because the local birds seem to think that our house is a great place to hang out. Unfortunately, they don't like brand new, clean, and closed windows. This was apparent when I visited the house and kept hearing thumps upstairs and watching birds hurt themselves.


- I don't know why, but this picture scares me a bit. Oh noes!


- The arches are starting to take shape. This one is in the kitchen that leads into the dining room.

- The other arch leading into the dining room from the living room.



- Notice the insulation? We did too when we stopped in today. No more echoes in the house, but it was a bit warmer. :)


- Washer/dryer plugs.

Remember that last blog post I mentioned sheetrock? Guess what.


- Sheetrock for the bathroom. Notice the anti-mold sheets.

- Sheetrock in the 'office' from the 'spare bedroom'. There is Sheetrock EVERYWHERE, so I'm looking forward to the coming week.


- Take a wild guess what this is for and where it goes. Hint: the answer is somewhere on this blog.

Well, that's it for the updates for now. Next blog update should include some wall formation. See you then!
