Moving right along

When I use the word "we" in many of my blog posts related to repairs and remodel work, believe me when I say I am referring to us as the royal we, for my husband is the one doing all the work; I simply encourage and take pictures.

Having said that, we finished the master bathroom a couple of weeks ago and it is gorgeous!  Looks much bigger than before.

First floor - almost done

Craig and I got a lot done yesterday!  I actually had a Sunday off and it was nice to be able to work together.  Even though it rained and the humidity was high, the trim paint dried quickly.

The living room taped for trim paint.

I washed most of the blinds from downstairs (two more to go), then it's onto finishing the dining room -- the room that is now the office -- and touching up the kitchen.

The window sill before paint!

The other window sill before paint.

I'm ready for drier weather so we can get outside and spruce up the mailbox area and our front porch. 

And, as usual, we are constantly purging and deciding what to keep, what to donate, and what to trash.  It's amazing how many glasses two people can collect over a few years! 

Selling the house

Well, we've listed the house and are now preparing it for showing. We're painting most of the interior, rearranging furniture, and, most important, purging!!
When you live in an RV, you don't need a lot of "stuff." Material possessions are prioritized, then realistically handled. We're donating, giving away, or trashing.
I'm really looking forward to not having any furniture! I like the idea of having everything I/we need already in place.
The countdown really is on!

The work table (a/k/a the liquor cabinet).

The office/catch-all room.

The family room (already painted).  Catch-all room number 2.

The guard dogs.
