more house info

It has been a very busy weekend. I’ve not had the time to prep pictures for posting. I will try to get to it soon…

We have been hard at work on the new place. It is now fully wired for surround sound, satellite, and ethernet. I can patch satellite, cable or an off-air antenna into any room of the house. All cables are hidden away. We did a very professional job. Even better, all connections are tested and working. Special thanks to George, David, and Pete for assisting with this large project. It took all weekend to completely finish, but it is worth it.

 The electricians did a great job, and we now have a HUGE fuse box, that has plenty of room for upgrading.

Last night, we finished spackling, and sanding in preparation for painting. We still need to give the walls a quick cleaning, but we will be ready to paint this weekend. We already purchased the paint. We are painting most of the house in a neutral color, but the master bedroom will be a bit more interesting.

We also did some little things, like removing old window treatments, installing a remote control for the master bedroom ceiling fan (thanks dad!), putting out new solar lighting in the yard, and reseeding the lawn.

 Things are coming along nicely. There is so much more to do, and we still need to find time to pack! I think we’ll make it, though!

It is a great house, and we are excited to live there.
