Making Progress in the House









Today the bottom kitchen cabinets were installed. 
Yesterday the carpet was installed.
Saturday the tile guy/carpenter packed up his tools and departed.
Now, it's time to think about appliances for the kitchen, and later furniture. 
The furniture will likely be "attic treasures" from here and there.

New Wood Floor

Yea!  The wood floor is finished on the main floor of the farm house. 


I took the photos above today. 
The photo below was taken on Thursday.
GJ the hubby warned me before taking me out there,
it was a messy job.

He was right!
But, the mess was well worth the finished product.


Fortunately, most of the mess was gone by the time I got there today. 

As you can see here....

Spring at the Farm

The grass is turning green and the trees are blooming.
It's spring time in Kentukcy!


Making Progress in the Kitchen

The new kitchen cabinets were hung on Monday. 
The bottom cabinets and counter top can not be installed until the floor is installed. 

These oak cabinets are custom-made by long-time friends.

The pantry above will be completed after the floor is completed.

Upon purchasing the house, GJ removed the old wood-burning stove in the great room.
I am very allergic to wood smoke.
The new propane stove installation was completed yesterday.
It will be used in case of a power outage.

Name for the Farm?

We are beginning to look like a cattle farm....

We have been discussing/debating a name for the farm for weeks.
Thus far, we are undecided ,but have enjoyed the lively discussion.
