P-p-p-pluggin' along

Harry Potter update...
Book #5 finished!
Book #6 started (did I really read this one before? It all seems so unfamiliar...)
Book #7 ordered (3 copies to pick up at midnight on the 21st.)


The family room is coming along nicely. It's actually turned out to be a room we all congregate in - something I thought might not happen. It's sunny and cheerful - even with no art on the walls yet. We have two prints being framed and then we'll have to figure out what to do with the long wall behind the couch.


W mounted the tv on the wall today - now it looks like a square lollipop on a stick (The "stick" hides the cords - we'll paint it to match the wall eventually.) The ceiling is so crooked, we had to put the tv at a slight slant to make it look normal.

Still to do:

  • replace furniture
  • install closet doors
  • add baseboard
  • make cushion(s) for window seat
  • fix outlets in tv wall
  • hang/place art
  • shop for rug


and a few other details but after 12 years, there is hope...

Oh! and we have a screen door! This year we can have more air and less bugs!!!
