House update for March 23rd

The house is coming along... a little slower than planned, but everything is going well, which is really great. It looks like things should work out to finish it, yee haw! The electrical was a big job and is finally done. We were blessed to have our friend, Clint, help with most of that. The inspections for the electrical are this week. They're getting ready to start on the insulation & HVAC (heating/air conditioning). Since everything inside has to go in a certain order, the siding will get put on in between, as they have time. Our hefty tax refund (such a blessing!) should really come in handy if it ends up taking an extra month or two. I'm REALLY hoping that doesn't happen, but it's so hard to know exactly how long everything is going to take.







I've started shopping around, getting ideas for decorating & color schemes. Just mainly looking at this point, although we did buy all three shower curtains last week. That was really fun. We've also been planning all the built-in cupboards/shelving for throughout the house, as those will be going in soon.. So I've been thinking a lot about where I will store different things, so we can customize the space. Who knew that even THINKING about organizing could be so much fun! lol We've also been deciding on where all the lights will be and the different types. Yesterday, my hubby put in the wood stove. We kept it from our old house. I've missed it soooo much this past year. I love to be toasty warm, something you just don't get from electric heat.
