A Weekend of Progress

Mom and dad came to visit a second time. What worker bees! Even though they were away at a 25th wedding anniversary party for part of Saturday, just having them nearby created an energy of change and accomplishment.

As you can see in the above photo, we started working on the kitchen flooring. The finished product is awe-inspiring!

We are still attempting to peel as much of the ceiling as possible before sealing and painting the final coat.mom peeling the red off the ceiling

The blue was a bad painting color choice on my part. The cream (well, “champagne”) is the new color choice.

    • Thanks Linda 🙂 these are not the same appliances we got from your friend. I should have posted more clearly about that. We found the dishwasher first, it measured to our opening, and ended up getting the whole stainless steel set because then we don’t have to look for any appliances anymore!!
