We have walls!

And unlike our old ones, they're insulated.



The sheetrock is up and the ceiling’s going in.



Instead of the god-awful dropped ceiling with the hideous fluorescent light fixtures, we have recessed lighting in a coffered ceiling made from the same wood as the cabinets.



It’s really hard to take a picture of a patio door. From the outside I get glare and reflections, and from the inside there’s too much contrast. But anyway, the door has blinds between the glass panes. And unlike our old leaky door, there’s no duct tape involved.

Today the under-tile heating element is going down. So maybe tiling can start tomorrow. The cabinets are supposed to be ready next week. So in a couple of weeks we may have a kitchen again.

Have I told you lately how jealous I am of your view?

Today is cloudy and foggy but the view of the lake is still beautiful. On days like this it looks surreal, like a special effect from a sci-fi movie or something.
