Moving in!


The remodeling is done and we're moving in! Yahoo! 

Over the past nine months, we've been nurturing this renovation along... and now it's here! It's move-in time!


This is the "unveiling" of the neglected (not renovated) side of the house. Before the start of the project, we moved all of our stuff to this side and then tried to "seal" it with plastic wrap... It's as if a fine sprinkling of clay dust is over EVERYTHING!

We know our remodel is done because they've taken the porta-potty away! It has become a landmark in our neighborhood!

You must be so excited - 9 months is a long time! And it is really great you are also helping out friends in this down economy.
I love unpacking boxes & putting my stuff in a new space.
Good luck!

PS - glad the quilts will join your pots over the holidays :>)

How great for you, 9 months isn't too bad, we have been working on this place for almost 4 years and now want to move, never again.

You mentioned a holiday steet sale in Cambira, what is the date of that, I thought we might come over to the coast that weekend.

wow you've been busy...happy packing and completing the move, did you try adding another 5% silica to your glaze? i can't remember the whole glaze thingy but if its a 'little glaze fit' this usually works...

Congrats on the move back in!

Wow - I guess I didn't know you were remodeling a house - Congratulations!

That has to feel good. When we remodeled in 2005, I was so relieved to move back in after we rented for 10 months during construction.

Hey Gary - Yep, they just carted away our little Honey Hut a couple of days ago. I kind of miss it. NOT!

Linda - Thanks for asking about the Cambria event date... Thursday, Dec. 4... I had to look it up! See my next post!

If you do plan on coming over, please let me know. I'd love to connect with you!
