Making Progress?
We have been working on Maid Elizabeth’s house and had been making great progress – that is, until we started ripping things out!
We knew that the bathroom needed to be gutted and plumbing needed to be attended to, but it seems we have delved into even more projects. We started by ripping up the bathroom and painting the kitchen. Maid Elizabeth began by painting the kitchen a lovely shade of yellow. Unfortunately that lovely yellow turned a somewhat mucus green in the evening light – ugh. Next, Maid Elizabeth painted the kitchen a striking color called Submarine Grey. With white trim, it promised to be beautiful! But then……I got a wild hare…..I decided to look under the homely wood paneling. I pulled the paneling back, lifted up at least 5 layers of wall paper, and discovered the most beautiful ship lap hiding beneath. After Maid Elizabeth squealed with delight and then tried to decide what she wanted to do, we commenced pulling all of the paneling off uncovering the ship lap. So were making progress. I think.

Maid Elizabeth and Sir Knight are picking up her new wood cook stove on Saturday and her flooring has been ordered. She is having a work party this weekend and hopes to make some real progress (no more steps backward). She has lighting waiting to be installed and appliances stacked up in the shed.
We are indeed making progress!
