Hmmm

Is it no surprise that I still don't have keys to my house? The paperwork is still at the recorders office.

Will this Escrow ever end? lol

    A Decluttered Life,
    My realtor said that she will bring my keys to my work this morning. That would be the greatest gift ever! Especially since it's the end of the month crazy at work. ha

    Victoria,
    I am so happy, but not holding my breath that I get my keys today... after all, I've been told that almost EVERY day for a week and a half!

    I left a comment on your blog regarding the dashboard problem. :)

Jewell's room

Image
I worked on Jewell's room for a few more hours today. I have decided that I'm too tired to paint the door, window trims and closet door; hence the blue tape you see in the photos. That will just have to be a job after I've moved completely in. I went and picked up Jewell & her mommy so I could do the big reveal. Jewell kept walking around in circles trying to take it all in. It was so adorable & worth every minute my daughter & I put into it. her birthday dress (that she never wore, lol) a happy little princess I painted this little vanity for her :) what shall I play with next grandma?

California Brickmaker

I believe this is the company that made the bricks for my house.  W.D. Trewhitt built the Scally Hotel, and I live in the Scally House. These sure look like my bricks!   Southern Pacific Brick & Tile Company History In 1916, the Southern Pacific Brick Company, or the S.P. Brick Co., was organized by W. H. Shields of Fresno, W. D. Trewhitt of Hanford, and L. E. Hays of Exeter to manufacture common red brick about a half mile northwest of Exeter on Belmont Avenue. The office was located at 435 Powell Building and later 1501 Pacific Southwest Building, Fresno. Trewhitt was president, Hayes was secretary and general manager. About 25 men were employed. By 1919, machinery for the production of hollow tile was added. In 1921, the S.P. Brick & Tile Company was incorporated with a capital stock of $250,000. View of the S.P. Brick & Tile Company plant. From Franke, 1930. The clay deposit covered 20 acres. Alluvial gray clay 20 to 40 feet thick was worked by a pit 1,300 ...

Dining room update...

Image
When I first started this adventure, I had grand visions of stripping all of the wood.  After many Sundays spent stripping the wainscoting, plate rails and window frames... that gradually changed. It has taken me years to get to where I am.  So, I changed plans...  and decided not to strip the box beam ceiling.  The main reason is that I would like to have a functioning dining room this year.  Everything is piled in the center of the room.  Table, chairs, hutch, china cabinet, etc.  It will be nice to actually eat at the dining room table. What the dining room looked like during my walk-through.  All the walls, windows, wainscoting and plate rails  are now stripped of paint.  The plan is to sand all the wood down,  and use an oil to bring it back to life.  I would love to shellac it,  but that would probably cost a fortune.  After I paint, it is going to look similar to this.  I am going to distress the beams, so...
