Sorry I Lied!

So I said at the end of the last blog that I would let you know when I moved in, I have. Of course it was almost 3 months ago - where does the time go. Everything went smooth, I had the new bed delivered and got it all set up. The shower is, in a word, awesome! I can turn the two side heads on and get blasted from both sides and when I really want to feel clean I can turn on the overhead. It feels like having a bucket of water dumped on my head. The best thing is my hot water system works the way I expected and I have not had a cold shower yet. The recirculating pump also brings the hot water right there so it only takes about 7 seconds to get the shower hot.

The last thing I was missing was a refrigerator. I really wanted a nice built-in type but they are rather spendy at $7000+. Well guess what, yep, an auction! An appliance store went bankrupt and I managed to get high bid on a nice Viking built in fridge with drawer freezer. The down side is it had a broken hinge from when it fell over. Fortunately for me the hinge was on a recall and I got all the parts for free. There is a small dent and a couple of scratches but for a quarter of what a new one would cost I can live with it!

Other than that I've been installing a few more doors and trim and doing a little work outside when its nice. Now that the temperatures have started to drop I've used the fireplace a few times and it works really well. I've also been moving more of my stuff over from the other house such as the planer (so I can plane all that wood I had milled) and my tools. You can also see in the picture a built in set of drawers I'm building for the master closet.

Now I'm trying to spend most of my time on the other house getting it cleaned up.

Until next time.
