Thank you, I'll wait until the decking is on before I venture out.
Our deck will be a "two-drink limit."
I can't wait until all this stone work is finished and the patio can be cleaned. It is still covered in white dust. I want to SEE the Oklahoma flagstone. The steel railing has to be primed and painted.
This is the view from the top of the steps looking down.
Tex can keep a good supply of firewood by the fireplace. Tex can be the one to grab a log to throw on the fire. I'm not going near those firewood storage places. Don't ya just know the rattlers at 900 Post Oak Road can't wait to check out their new digs! Oh, no. Nellie is not going near those.
I'm a tad worried about this tree that is right outside the dining room window. I think it's going to croak. We won't know until next spring, but a couple months ago it looked more yellow than it's kinfolk around the lot. The sermon this morning at church was "Winning Over Worry." Perfect sermon for Nellie. Will one time do it.......or do I need to go to the office and get the tape to listen to daily?
Most of the trim work is done. I wish I could get a good picture of the pantry shelves beside and beneath the stairs. I was flabbergasted! You talk about making good use of space! Still no cabinets in the house. Ugh. I'm wondering if we'll be in by Christmas.

This is the master closet. The cabinet maker is making a six drawer dresser that goes beneath the window. This is my side of the closet.
This is another view of my side of the closet.
This is Tex's side of the closet. Well, technically, his side is only the first section you see. I get the space on the far side of the cubbies.
Tex may be the King of the World, but Nellie is Queen of the Closet.

Amen and Goodnight!

Man, the casa is percolating right along! On the bright side, you don't have that much longer to fret and worry. Shoot, Phil's probably movin' at break-neck speed just so's he can shuck you off his "to do" list!
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed with Tex. I can't believe he climbed the rafters with a tape measure and now he is standing on an unfinished deck. Nellie, you were thinking Dicaprio when you should have been thinking "OMG Tex could fall right through those beams"! I'm not sure I even want to be on the "two-drink limit deck" when it is completed. What a view though!! Do you think you have enough closet space?
ReplyDeleteLooks like the patio and floating deck would be a perfect location for an outdoor wedding. Maybe Tex and get ordained on-line and you two can start a wedding and reception company and write the house off as a business expense!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Todd, Liz and Brayden
That Todd - he's always thinkin'!
ReplyDeleteWell, I'll be danged! (said slapping my thigh) Phil the Phoreman said exactly the same thing...it was a perfect place for a wedding. BRIAN...do you hear your mamma?
