Updates coming soon

As predicted, I pretty much abandoned this blog (and updates to the house, for the most part). But school (read: work)'s out, so we have lots of time on our hands and have been busy around here.

I'll post some pictures later. Here's a little sneak preview of what to expect (because I know you totally won't be able to sleep until you get a hint of what's to come):

  • we painted (some of) the living room and switched out the beige dirty-looking outlets with crisp white ones
  • I got a start on my gallery wall
  • the master bathroom is (nearly) complete. Just a couple more pieces of trim, 2 doors and vanity to paint.
  • our garden overfloweth.
  • Dustin is working on sealing the driveway. Not very interesting, so there won't be any pictures of that probably.
We're slow-moving people, so it probably doesn't seem like a lot (especially since none of those bullet points are actually completed projects) , but we're impressed with ourselves.

But wait! There's more! Here are some more tasks we have on the ole' agenda for the coming weeks:

  • paint the trim in the living room, including the large beam that divides the living room and dining room
  • paint and decorate the guest bedroom
  • hang plate wall in dining room (and procure said plates). Much to Dustin's dismay.
  • hang new storm door and replace rotted trim on front door
Fascinating, right? Wait til you see pictures! (/mild sarcasm)
