Photo Update

 Living room construction.  Its coming along very nicely thanks to good/talented friends.  If anyone needs work done we can recommend people.  These pictures are after the gutting, reframing, insulating, plumbing, electrical, hanging the new sheet rock, taping and mudding, new windows, and the floor being tore out.

 This is our new bay window that we got for free!  We love it.

 Another view of the living room.  That space under the stairs is currently open to the basement.  Im hoping to build shelves into the new stairs.

 This is the 100 year old floor.  It has lots of nots so we need to plane the floor before we continue.

 This is the 50 year old floor on the other half of the room which we think was an addition.  The house stayed in one family until we bought it, and they had a bad habit of painting around their rugs.

 The new front door.  It is really pretty, these pics don't show it well.

 outside bay window.

 The view of the field from the front door.  It you look hard you can see the bee hives (small white boxes) way down there in the back.

 Where the 50 yr old and 100 yr old floor meet.

 The missing bathroom wall.  Im standing in the kitchen looking into the bathroom, so sad.

 Here Im in the kitchen looking into the bathroom on the left and the living room on the right (and FYI these pics are taken with my web cam so they are mirror images (aka backward).

 Kitchen ceiling by the bathroom.

 our new plumbing.

 more plumbing

 which required us to put a hole in the kitchen/bathroom floor, so I can see into the basement from kitchen as well.

Front door again.

This is the bruise from my fall on Friday.  There is another small one on my arm which got caught in the railing and a third small one on my knee from my fall on either wed or thursday.  Luckily I am a quick healer.

Aaron mixing up a 50% Formic Acid treatment for the bees to keep them healthy!  He is out in the garage playing scientist, calculating solution and what not.

The solar wax melter.  We have enough wax for 4 candles now, but aaron wants us to wait till we have more before we start making any candles.  Although it looks ugly here the wax is a beautiful bright yellow.

Aaron's tomato plant.  He wanted one of his own to try the worm compost material one.
