i’ve been on a bit of a blogging hiatus, but a brief house update, as i condense 4 weeks of renos into two or three posts.
here is the house with the stucco going on in layers. The colour on the chimney is what we will be painting the entire house.



from the inside – the stud walls get some insulation


and then some drywall

new back door in the kitchen (the kind with the blinds between the glass, based on our disastrous previous experience with blinds on the outside of the glass)

looking towards the dining area (living room through the doorway)

drywall in the living room

this part is all new – front hallway with window, coat closet (!) and stairwell where there was once a bedroom.
progress

Wecome back, Zora! “Progress” is an understatement—it looks great! But best of all is that adorable photo of your daughter!

Oh good work!
This is really a big work but I think it is worth all the effort and money. Good luck!
