Moving Days

We are not moving like most folks move! It is bit by bit!  It is Dec 2010 and in Dec -- 9 entire years ago -- we were packing up to move out here to "camp" in a repo mobile home trailer until we could build our home....today Dec 1, 2010 we moved a little bit closer to that goal....the entire family (the ones left at home 6/11ths) and Carpenter and I worked all day.  We hung curtain rods, installed and set commodes and sinks, mopped the brand new tile floor that was finished yesterday, put in some furniture, hauled off construction trash and just had ourselves a grand time!

To top it all off ATT began working to get phone services up there...the technician said the line digger/installer was going "to love this job"!  It is up and down from the main road thru ruts and crags and woods and gulleys and hills -- he surely won't be bored! 

I am determined to spend my first nite up there before 2011 shows her face! I don't know if I'll be able to sleep from the excitement though!

Here is a peep at some of our movings -- the stone tile looks like it sort of melted off the pine walls and turned into stone! We are slowly getting used to it ;} Carpenter did such a good job and we are grateful to our friend, Zac, who allowed us to borrow his very nice tile cutter!

Ezra's curtains partly done and hung...wheat twill panels to come.

 
These adorable silhouettes were scarfed up

from a thrift store by my sweet friend

who knew I would love them in my new house!
This is the hall-guest FACILITIES.

I've set up temporary sewing headquarters in a back bedroom

 to sew up all the draperys, coverlets, window shades and upholstered cushions.

Wish me happy moving....
