Almost


gothic amethyst

The floors have been sanded and the first coat of finish is on! Man, those floors are great. See the color they are in that picture up there? They don't look anything like that anymore - they glow! It turns out they're made from heart pine so the grain in them is really amazing. The next coat of finish will go on sometime this weekend, I think. Consequently, we've decided to rent the house we're in now for another week. It was either that or stay at a hotel or hostel...with the cats.

We've begun moving things into the weird industrially, garage-y building behind the house. The cats are getting wise to our plans and are unsure about it all. They've decided to cope by going in and out of the house as many times as they possibly can in a day. We're exhausted.

Wow -- the room looks lovely.
I look forward to a photo of the floors!

Good choice not to move to Motel 6 with two cats for a week.
