Live in the New House has Started

We have been in the house 4 months now , sure is nice to have a house again.  Still working on a lot of projects for the house.

Lately it has been linen closets and clothes closets.   We lined the linen closets with wood and made adjustable shelving.  With those done we will start this week on the clothes closets.  

We have had a few bugs to work out of the ground source heat pump system but, they will get resolved and with Goejerry's help we will get the kinks out over the winter.  Sure is nice to have heated floors the room stays warm down by the floor. The air at the top of the vaulted ceilings isn't much warmer than the room, only degree or two warmer.  

As in this photo we fired up the wood stove just for fun this weekend nothing beats the heat off a wood stove.   We installed the baseboard downstairs and will install window trim when done with the closets,  this will take some time with the width of the window sill. We will join 3, 4inch wide boards together to try and control warpage.

With our first Thanksgiving and Christmas behind us now looking forward to making great memories.   In the spring we will finish up the stucco and outside window trim and get the porch and sidewalks poured.
