report from granny-lope

January 29, 2007

Yeah, I was SO not kidding about that granny thing… I’m definitely creeping at this point. We’ve put in long days since 8am friday morning… Little bit tired to say the least.

I’m really grateful that my brother and his marine buddy, Dan the man, could come help! We could never do all this without them. here are some pics so far…

Here’s me painting the entry way:

Dan, pretty much beat:

The fridge and stove are in the living room:

Pretty new floor with spacers… It looks like a calm moment though, doesn’t it?:

    if it is any help, we are doing it the same down here to our house. But it will all be worth it I am sure.

    is the color in the background of the tile the color you painted the kitchen?
    Looks like ours! the color of the tile and the wall :)
