Look! I've got floor.

The floor is done and isn't it nice?

The molding is up as well, and I like it all.

It's got color!

I love this green! It's going to be bright and cheerful, and wonderful to work in. At last a craft room.

They will be laying the floor tomorrow, so tonight I have to varnish the floor and ceiling molding.

I have work to do.

Today's work

I can't believe how fast things are coming together. I am almost ready to prime and paint the interior, and tonight I finished up with the staining baseboards and ceiling molding. {I am sooo glad that's done} Now I have to put the urethane on to protect the stain. Then it's onto the walls.

I can't wait to be finished. Take a look....

Near the end

Still have lots of work to do but.... it's coming right along.

Update!

We are ready for the cement! It won't be long before I'll have my garage, and I can park inside.

The insulation went in today in the addition and I have half the molding stained. Another long night of work but, I'm just to tired tonight to do it.

Take a look at the updated pictures.

Working on the Addition

The work goes on and I'm waiting for the electrician to come so the room can be wired.

Here are the pictures from yesterday. Enjoy!

The Craft Room

At long last I am getting my craft room built. It is coming right along and it won't belong before I'll be painting and moving in. These guys are fast!

Take a look and come back and see it progress.

The Mural

{Yes that's me in the green dress and red hair. The lady in the dress uniform is Col. Bianca Trimiloni, the director of military women in the Air Force.}

When I was stationed in Ca. at Vandenburg AF base, I had a chance to do something I had always ,wanted to do, and when it was completed it was displayed in a prominent place. I had never had that happen before and it was and still is an honor for me. What follows is the base write up about the painting I created and painted. Also with the write up are a couple of pictures taken at that time.

I place this here now, only to share something I've done and am proud of, and for no other reason. In honor of the bicentennial I was given the chance to create this painting. I share it now with you.

What is it?

Is it a trunk, a box, a closet? Well what ever it is, I finally got it done after all these years.

I am so glad to, now I just need to select a doll to store her clothes in it, and I'm off and running.

I am so glad it's finished. I have been working on it for the past month and it was slow going because you had to stop and let the glue dry. So... now on to the next project.
