Meanwhile, back at the ranch…

Okay, okay – I know. It’s been a while since the last post, and I’ve been slacking off. But it’s that time of year. Aside from being swamped with work, we’ve had the pleasure of moving.

But the move is done, and now we’re in our house! Hooray! I’ll get some photos posted for ye all (well, those who are interested) but first and foremost, the most important thing in the new house – my beer fridge!

Mmmm. Stickered, and full of beery goodness!

The move went brilliantly. We used a local moving company called Birch Circle Movers who tore through the job like men possessed. Our furniture was moved in record time, without so much as a scratch. Bravo those lads. But before we brought anything over, we unleashed hell on the floors. The previous owner had carpeted the whole place (even one of the bathrooms!) in white carpet, which just wasn’t going to fly. So we hired Matt Reagon of Fundamental Floors to tear up the carpet and go to work on the gorgeous hardwood. Check it:
Before. Spraypaint, nastiness, and torn up bits?! After Matt went to town on them

After the floors were done, and the moving was sorted, we got to work painting. We enlisted the help of as many folks as we could (amazing how many people were mysteriously out of town that weekend) but our boys Fil Gonzalez and Mike Braswell swung by and kicked arse.

So now we’re here and living, the work still goes on. The deck needs attention, the back and front gardens are wildly overgrown, and there’s always something that needs doing. Which reminds me – I’d better get back to it. Post more soon, honest!
