Slow going

Sorry for the long delay between posts, things have been super busy which means work on the house as been, well, slow going.
We are making some progress though. We've been able to get just about everything put away in the kitchen (now if we only had some lights). I finished putting in the baseboards and have filled the nail holes and caulked the tops and seams in most of the rooms.
We got the fish tank up and running again, sans fish (Einstein died during the move) and I built a new IKEA cabinet for the bar area. I just have to anchor all the book shelves into the wall and then we can start filling them up again and get rid of some more boxes.
The office is still kind of a disaster, but the computer is up and running and we have internet now! The guest room still needs some TLC as Mark J. will have to come back and do some more work on the closet to accommodate the mirrored doors.
I have all the air vents painted and ready to go back in and Kari got all new switch plate and outlet covers for the whole house. We still have a good amount of touch-up work to do on the paint, but things are coming together.
We still haven't hung anything on the walls yet besides the TV and the key holder so it looks a little bare in that sense. But, I'm done with high school season now so I'm able to dedicate more time to the house and hopefully get some stuff caught up pretty soon.
Once we get some things finished up we'll start posting some pictures and hopefully we'll be able to blog more often.
