If you've started to wonder whether the "room which shall not be named" won the fight against the chaos; fear not - I did in fact win out! To see what the room looked like before, check out the pictures from my previous post. Below are a few photos of the state it's...
Mysterious radiators
This house always manages to keep up guessing. Just when we think we have something figured out and under control, we find that we really don't have a clue. Of course, since this is the first home we've owned and we are still learning to be "handy," everything can...
The room which shall not be named…
Unfortunately, S will be going out of town for most of the weekend. So I will be here with the fur-girls and we'll see what sort of things we can find to stir up trouble. I think I will be focusing a lot of time and energy on the dreaded extra room which has been...
The next question…
Where are we going to use these new handles when we finally finish doing to them whatever we're going to do? We were recently discussing this and hubby had the interesting idea of using different handles for each door. At the moment we're partially there. In our...
Setting up a woodworking workshop
The previous owner of our little farm was a woodworker and he had two workshops here on this farm. One of them had to go when we did the build out of the kitchen, but the other one at the back of the barn remains., Since there is a lot of furniture we still need and...
Throwing away more junk
We really wanted to work on the greenhouse some more today but it's Sunday and we're supposed to be fairly quiet. So we decided to work on finally filling up the trash container sitting in the courtyard so it can be hauled off (it's been here close to a month now I...
Back to work as usual
Sadly, hubby's vacation is already over and there is still plenty to be done around here. But we did make very good progress in the garden and are working ourselves up to starting and hopefully even finishing the construction of the greenhouse this weekend. We're...
The Mouse Hunter
Although we've been trying to deny it, we have a small mouse problem here on the farm. Although we live in a small city (it's more of a town really with a population of around 1000 people) and there are houses all around us, most of the farms are "working farms"...
Hubby’s new toy
We started our fun filled week of gardening at the local home improvement store, where we picked up the dozens of things we need to build the greenhouse. Among them was a miter saw, which we will need to build various things around the farm. Hubby already had a jig...
The concrete mixer works!
First thing this morning we checked out the concrete mixer we found in our cellar. It is an electric model that is looking rather aged on the outside, but the mixing bowl (no idea if that is really the name for it is nice and clean.The mixer is electric and after...
