As some of you know,,, we sold our home near Yosemite, CA.. and moved back to the Spokane WA area...

We bought an older (35y/o) house in much need of 'fixin up'...
Well the new counters are in, 2 bedrooms are carpeted, new appliances are in,,, and now the floor guys are here laying down the new flooring through out the house (with the exception of the 2 newly carpeted bedrooms)...
Every wall has been painted, sinks & faucets replaced,,, well you get the idea...

So we are still living out of boxes,,, and house cleaning is a futile battle... lol!

Come summer we will have new windows installed....
Thank goodness the previous owner had the roof replaced 2 years ago and a new heat pump/& A.C. installed 1 year ago...

So once the dust settles... I can finally unpack and settle in...

So,,, in the mean time,, as I try to stay out of the guys way... I will drink coffee and troll the internet... heeheehee!

Wow Grace, it sounds like you hit the ground running. Please post pictures of your progress, as I love to live through other people adventures and learn so when it is my time (two and half years) I have have wonderful ideas to copy.

Beautiful new floors, Grace! It all sounds very exciting but I understand how nice it will be to get things settled so you can move on to just enjoying the new home! Hang in there, it looks like such a lovely new home in the making! Trolling the internet can be fun too.....!!LOL!!!

but,,, I need to add,,, we love putting our personality into the house... and not living with someone else's paint colors, flooring etc...
Just as I know,,, the next owner of this house (if & when we sell) will put their personality into it...
