Are we there yet?

  • How about a little history.
    I started this blog in 2003. It was to be all about our experience in house building. It's been an amazing journey. Sometimes I look around and I can't believe we acutally built this house and when I say we I mean we. Myself, my husband, his cousin Russ, our Dads and assorted friends and other relatives. We did hire a contractor to pour our foundation and we had a horrible experience with some drywallers but otherwise it was all us. We have been in the house now for one year. There are still a lot of details to finish up. I have some guilt about not posting house projects since I am a member of a house blog ring but there is a lot of valuable information on house building here so while my posts are more about living in our dream house you can still search my archives for posts on every aspect of house building. So? Are we there yet? Nearly. We still need doors and trim inside.......some flooring and tiling needs to be done so stay tuned-we'll get there.

Deck Building Party

Wait A Minute!

Beulah That is one way to get the kitchen floor cleaned!

It's 70 today so I had the deck doors open.  I was working in my office so I never saw them come in.  Beulah and Mona were busy cleaning the kitchen floor and finishing up the cat food!

Silly chickens.

Chickens

Egrets Nest  wanted to know about my chipper.  Well it belongs to our neighbor Chett , he has graciously loaned it to us so we can chip up our branches.  I don't know what he paid for it but it sure is handy.  If you have a lot of branches you might just want to check them out.

We really lucked out in the neighbor department.  We are sharing tools, workload, security and enjoying each others company.

Great pictures, thanks for sharing!
Sometimes I wish I had some silly chickens to do the cleaning in my house :)

Tell them I don't want any chickens in the kitchen unless they are ready to really commit.

I hope they didn't see any of their eggs on the counter, they might have started to piece together the mystery. Like in every thriller movie when the cops find the bad guys hideout and he has a whole wall covered with pictures of his victims.

Cool. It's good to ahve cool neighbors.

As for the chickens . . . as long as they clean up more than they leave behind!!! :)
