\"house<\/a>…remember the one where I said I was going to be updating this on a regular basis?\u00a0 Okay, so I’m a liar.\u00a0 Flat out.\u00a0 Sue me – I got nuthin’.<\/p>\n

A myriad of choices are digging circles into the ground around my head.<\/p>\n

Here’s where we are.<\/p>\n

The dishwasher was delivered today.\u00a0 Dishwasher?\u00a0 I thought we weren’t going to have one?\u00a0 Oh.\u00a0 Change in plans.\u00a0 However, this particular model is all of 18 inches wide.\u00a0 I love that!\u00a0 I love to wash my dishes in front of the window that looks out into the forest.\u00a0 But…lately we have had a few visitors.\u00a0 Dishes have a way of multiplying.\u00a0 Time flies by and there is a pile of nastiness in the sink awaiting hot water and cleansing.\u00a0 Hence…the dishwashing machine.<\/p>\n

Color choices for the inside and outside have been made.\u00a0 A very, very pale grey for the inside.\u00a0 Sequoia Grove for the outside.\u00a0 The outside color needed to complement the fabulous porch timbers and the deep green roof shingles.\u00a0 The interior needed to NOT be white or beige.\u00a0 I came to like the idea of a huge expanse of wall upon which to hang artwork.\u00a0 The color needed top be able to complement all\u00a0genres of art.<\/p>\n

The bamboo flooring has been picked up and it has joined the mass of items in the garage.\u00a0 We opened the ends of the boxes so the bamboo would breathe, but not warp.<\/p>\n

We are currently looking at drawer pulls and door knobs.\u00a0 Remember the myriad of choices digging the circle in the dirt around my head – the circle just got deeper.<\/p>\n

We went to a tile store in Oak Harbor and selected porcelain tile for the downstairs bathroom and the upstairs floor.\u00a0 That was a lot of fun – seriously!\u00a0 Oh, and the bench and the shelves in the shower will be constructed from leftover marble.\u00a0 Oh, yes they will.<\/p>\n

The concrete color samples for the kitchen counter have been cast.\u00a0 They are exciting to see.\u00a0 When they are ground down a bit, the rocks show through!\u00a0 Beautiful.<\/p>\n

I am sure we have done other things and I swear I will try to update on a daily basis.\u00a0 Do not, under any circumstances, hold your breath!<\/p>\n
