Porch finished! Aside from getting a big indoor/outdoor area rug, it's all done. We laid the floor on Sunday, and it looks good. It's not the exact type of flooring I would wish for, but it's totally fine (marbled white/gray vinyl tiles). It will be perfect for the summer.
Preston has a door! Skip did a good job getting the door up on Preston's room. Why the previous owners did not have doors on the downstairs rooms is beyond me, but it was a cheap update (actually, they probably didn't have a door on the back bedroom- our room for now- because it leads out to the porch; that will eventually be a den/office for us, too). It was a little off kilter since the house is 85 years old and sinks a bit to the east, but that's one of those little quirks we're discovering as we live there each day.
There are no more boxes in the kitchen! And only like 4 in the dining room! It's been interesting finding space for all of our kitchen stuff, since the cabinet space is much less in this one than it was in our old place. However, I managed to downsize on some of our "equipment" and moved stuff around, so there is a place for all the essentials. I got a shelving unit for the pantry/closet, so we have to food in there and more cabinet space in the kitchen "proper" for other things.
That's it for now, I hope to get pictures of the porch floor up soon... when I find the camera battery charger... It must be in one of those 4 boxes...
