Our Old House

We're newlyweds in an 1875 Victorian fixer-upper in St Paul, MN. Let the chaos ensue!

A big push

The pressure is on. Self induced, of course. John and I have decided that we want to be able to move downstairs one of these years... and we've set a target date of April 1 (no foolin').

Friday night we made a list of things to get done in order to keep us moving forward. We had the help of five fabulous individuals and made a significant dent. We now have a curtain rod in the upstairs bedroom closet, a bifold door between the upstairs bathroom and the furnace room, paint on the downstairs living and dining rooms, and a start on re-doing the plumbing in the downstairs bathroom. (Our contractor managed to incorrectly measure when laying out the bathroom, and so all of the pipes he placed need to shifted to the left by Pat... and we lose our proposed storage area. *heavy sigh*)

It's starting to really feel like a home... except for all the tools everywhere. :)
