Since Ember and family went home last Thursday, Hal and I got back to work on the Palace. (Have I mentioned we call the new house the Palace?) We also decided that with a bed and a working sink and toilet, old fridge in the mudroom and a microwave, coffee pot and portable induction burner, we may as well move in, sort of. While the single induction burner is fine for breakfast, we still have to return to the farm for most cooking, laundry, showers, TV and internet.
Here is a little of what is going on.
Yesterday we got back to working on the shower walls. Here Hal is making sure the screw holes for the shower handle line up.
We installed the wet wall yesterday.Today we got the end wall glued up.The dogs are officially moved in. All but one bed is here. Kaylee seems to be settling in, but Ziggy is unsure about things. Though to be honest, he's been out of sorts for weeks now. I can't figure him out; is he in pain, bored, confused? He never seems happy unless he's barking at something in the woods. An enigma of a little dog.
I've been moving kitchen equipment that I won't need at the farm over to the Palace. It feels good to move things over, but I will be so happy when the countertops and appliances go in. Last week the guy came out to measure for the Corian counters, supposedly they'll be installed next week. Looking forward to it but nervous something will go wrong.

As the new floors are all installed except for a couple thresholds which will be installed after the interior doors are in, we decided to take the dining table out of storage in the pole barn across the street from the farm and take it over.
I really like how the table looks. Plus, Hal installed the chandelier. the last of the interior lights!
