Rush Resident in Progress

Here's the latest on the house. The attic insulation has been blown, the tile around the fireplace has been completed. They have started doing all the little touch up work around the baseboards and what not. The columns out front have been set and the vinal siding has been completed. Only things left now, are the finish the touch ups, stain the wood on the counter tops, paint the columns, seal the floors, and lay the carpet in the 2 guest beds. The carpet will be done very last because I picked "perfect lace" or WHITE carpet! Enjoy the pictures
This is a picture of one of the guest beds that will actually be used as a guest bed. This picture was taken sometime ago so all the wood work is not completed in this picture. The color is "Bronzed Beige". The 2nd guest bed will be Craig's office/study with a club chair and ottoman, TV, and his desk.

This is a picture of our bedroom and the doorway leads to our bathroom and closet. I dont know the exact name of the color anymore but it is like a light celadon green color. Very relaxing and our new furniture is a dark expresso wood finish!


Pictures of my kitchen. The stove goes underneath the microwave ventahood and it is already in place. Just haven't gotten a new picture.

These are pictures from both baths. The one on the left is off the cabinet in the guest bath and one on the right is the vanity in our bath. Same color stain on the cabinets and same countertop in each. It is similar to the kitchen but the cabinets are darker and the countertops are lighter. Same colors as in the corresponding beds.

The fireplace without the grout. Picture is an upclose look at the tiles.


Columns have not been painted and once we close on the house a different door will be added. The door I have selected is a four pane glass and wood door. It will be a cherry stain. The shutters are black. Last thing for them to do is the landscaping

New Year. . . New Day

2007 has come and gone. . . and now 2008 is ready to start a fresh! We have ended 2007 with a full last month. I have been working in S'port with Dr. Walker while both of his hygienist have been out on maternity leave and Craig has been crazily busy at Bodies. We spent our 2nd Christmas together in Boyton Beach, Florida. Dan was not able to come home for Christmas, so we took Christmas to him. The three of us had a great time just relaxing and loving the 85 degree weather! Not what you would think of as the Christmas season!

Now for 2008, we are looking to move into our new home sometime around the beginning of February. I started packing things up yesterday and have left just the bare necessities for cooking! I start teaching Preschool at Temple on the 8th and I am still working with Peachtree Dental mainly on Fridays. I have a couple of additional contract hygiene jobs that I am going to be doing in S'port. Bella and Abby are looking forward to their yard at the new house, but I am not sure they are aware that they won't be able to join us inside! We are looking to add another family member once we move. her name is Prissy and she is my 6 1/2 year old Rat Terrior/Whippet. My aunt and uncle have had her since I was in hygiene school. Three female dogs and a wife. . . I think Craig is out numbered!

Until next post, stay warm and Happy 2008!

She's a Brick House . . . .


Brick is done, siding almost complete.
Beds & Baths have been painted.
Just waiting for cabinets and all the little bitty stuff. . .
