I keep saying how long it has been since my last blog each time I write, but man, it REALLY has been a while. And that is because we have been working so hard on finishing up the place so we can get our final inspection and enjoy (uh, and I have a big exam in 2 months I have to start studying for - starting this week). The greatest news is that I scored the table and chair set I have been searching for months for. I've been on Craigslist multiple times a day, been to the Rosebowl and Long Beach antique markets... then finally! A gorgeous set in amazing condition - walnut table and 6 chairs with two extension leaves. I'm in heaven! And it looks so good next to my "new" walnut wall unit. On the construction front I still have a ton of painting to do, however, we made quite a bit of progress on the deck. After wrapping up last night around 9:00 pm I took some night shots of where we are. Hopefully this weekend will let us finish it up so we can get the inspection ovr the week of the 26th.
