8 weeks. That's how long it took to get our house remodel done. Considering all that was accomplished, that wasn't such a long time. Considering how hard it was to live (survive really) in the house while it was being done, it was a very long time. But the results are great. We've very happy with the way everything turned out. I'm actually excited to cook again. Frozen foods, fast foods and eating out gets old with time.
The remodel has consumed every waking moment of my time, energy, organizational skills and patience to get through the project. It's consumed all of Rick and Andy's patience as well. I've enjoyed it though. I've enjoyed working with the skilled workers and organizing the sequence of projects. I've enjoyed picking everything out. I've enjoyed taking every thing out of our house and then putting about half of it back. I've been working for the last two weeks just cleaning and getting everything put back in place. I'll admit that I'm putting a bunch of stuff in the office that I need to go through later when I have more time, but that will be my winter project. Downsize. Toss. Give away. Sell. It feels great.
Here's a sneak peak. More photos to come later. RIP Dave's bedroom.
I haven't been able to blog very much since we started this project, but I've got some good stuff to share. Stay tuned.

I can't even imagine what you've all been through! I cannot wait to see in person. I almost don't want to see any more pictures until this weekend so it will all be a surprise! Love the dining room though- just two months ago, I slept in Dave's old room. Maybe the sisters were one of the last to do so?
Looks beautiful, I cannot wait to see it in person.
One word. WOW!
It does look great, and it should, given how it did take all our patience. Great work in organizing it all, Vonnie.
I love it!! Have I already told you that the color you chose for your walls is my FAVORITE! I think I did, but I needed to say it again. It looks so nice and elegant. Can't wait to see it in person!
GORGEOUS!!
