| Ready for a new paint job |
Our painter started working on the outside this week. It will be a tedious job with lots of scraping and caulking, and so far she is doing a meticulous job of prepping. The front of the house is not quite as bad as the rest due to the protection of the porch, but you can see from the pics, this house is long overdue for paint.

The rest of our week has been spent working at our regular jobs and cleaning inside. I am sure we will be vacuuming sheet rock dust for months to come. After our first round of cleaning, we opened up the A/C vents and vacuumed those. Captain Man installed a new thermostat and turned on the much needed A/C. We waited for a few minutes, but no cool air. We had to have the A/C serviced, but now, thankfully, we have a working A/C. So, so, so nice after working here for last few months in the humid heat.

Captain Man has also been busy assembling the kitchen cabinets. We chose a ready to assemble cabinet and we are pleased with the construction, no particle board. We went with a white Shaker style, which seems appropriate for our craftsman home. We did run into a snag though. We originally ordered a "pantry" cabinet and turns out...when we opened the box, the face frame was missing. 😢 But the company was easy to work with and our face frame is on its way. Can't wait to get them installed in our kitchen!
It has been a busy week for both of us. But we are getting close to moving in!!! Yay!!!
Until next week...
Enjoy!
