New Reflections

The interior of the house has been developing it's character these last few weeks, showing us what she (I think she's a she) is all about and who she's going to be. So since the weather has taken a turn for the worse, I thought it would be nice to go inside for a bit and take a look at some of the fun things that have been happening around here.

The other day I noticed something was different when I walked in but couldn't quite put my finger on it. Then suddenly, the sun in all it's glory, started shining through the lovely blue tinted plastic on the windows revealing more bits of "sparkle and shine" that frankly, I wasn't expecting to see for a few weeks. Another delightful surprise.


It's amazing how a little metal, glass & tile can bring so much realism to the picture, and by realism I mean - this is really...finally, going to be a real house!








And much to my relief and hearts content..I believe I am finally allowing myself to become attached, just a little!

Thank you so much Dennice...it's been a long ride getting to this point and your wonderful comment puts fuel in the tank to keep pushing through to the end! Your the best!

By the way...our city made us put in so many earthquake reinforcements that when the big one comes...we're going to give that quake a run for it's money! xo
