Get your mind out of the (proverbial) gutter.

That's right, folks. Hold on to your adult diapers because we have some excitin' news! We have GUTTERS! That leaky back door: now as water tight as a frog's behind. And when you come to our housewarming party (slated for June, so get your airline tickets now) you won't get what seems like a bucketful of water on your head, as you walk onto our porch... that is if it's raining. We may dump a bucket of water on you just for fun. Probably not, though.


The study is now a lovely shade of 'dried grass'.
And we sort of tentatively decided to re-do the fireplace surround. We found this wicked awesome marble tile, but we can't seem to decide if it's exactly what we want. Any comments or suggestions, faithful readers?


The hallway looks much better, now that all the dirty fingerprints are layered under a new coat of paint!

Our brown wall. I call it the 'Wall of chocolate hell'. Not really. But as you can see it was a pain in the butt to paint. The part that joins with the little square of white ceiling is still too tall to reach comfortably with a scaffolding. Ugh. Mike and I agreed that if the living room ever needs to be repainted- we're moving.
Mike's fine bootay and tile work in the "powder room".

The master bathroom floor. Don't you just love the decor? This red stuff is the "barrier" that protects the tile from cracking. Hopefully it works. The house is coming along. We are giving it the ol' college try between working and getting enough Daze-A-Daze time. Maybe we'll move in someday...
