Looks Like A Home and Feels Like Home!

It's been a journey of about seven months, but the end is in sight!

On December 3rd, one of my brothers, my sister-in-law and I set out from Florida in a three vehicle caravan to take a load of furniture to South Carolina.
Doug drove the 16 ft rental truck, Katie drove one of their cars and I drove the pickup truck filled with "treasures" for my house.  It was a whirlwind trip and Doug and Katie worked tirelessly while here so my house is starting to look like a home. Nancy O. has been here (again) helping and working very hard.

Take a look back at all that has been accomplished...
Please note that I still need to:

  • paint the woodwork and doors
  • complete the touch up painting on walls
  • add window treatments (on backorder)
  • set up and decorate the larger bedroom (no pictures of that room  in this post)
  • finish recovering sofa in living area (The pinkish fabric will soon be  completely gone!)
  • turn piano into a desk (Piano is in pictures, but draped with sheet.)
