40 hours and counting--
Move in is in 40 hours- here's what it looked like this afternoon.
Hard to see, but the Laundry, Pantry, and Butler's Pantry are all painted mustard. The house is too high to see the painted floors on the third floor (we call it the fourth floor when working).
The top roof will be detachable, which will make it easier to shingle. The shingles arrived today, but I am afraid to open the box and see the job ahead of me.
The builder has made all of the clapboards for the sides-
There is a darker section of claps above the first window, but it all gets painted over. The windows don't get glued in until the wallpaper is in- what a jigsaw puzzle. You get a better sense of the stain on the grooved floors in the bottom room, which is the dining room.
The back is just on with 2 screws, it comes off tomorrow to glue wallpaper behind the hall doors.
ETA: Karen just texted to say it can come tomorrow afternoon if I want. Oh my gosh, the space isn't ready!
