Missed this last week as we just werent ready to have any one finished job around here.  Indie (goat) comes home this week bred and we are preparing her new home!  The rain water system at the barn is finished and collecting well.  We took a day last week and put boards on the front of the utility room then stained it in the weathered grey stain.  Larry brought home a door and hung it but it is in need of a coat of paint as well.




We also finished completely the dividing wall between the living room and kitchen.  We had planned on two walls one on each side of the room...a bookshelf and a coat closet...after that we sat back and decided to connect the two walls and are very glad we did.








We are still slowly clearing the woods for the garden.  Feeling like we are finally starting to get somewhere there.  Its going to be a winter full of work out there though.  Planted the garlic and have it put to bed for the winter.  Im not convinced we planted enough but we will increase it more next year if there is a need.


As I was finishing the drywall in the living room...a job that will NEVER again be in this cottage as I hated it!  Larry took the time to finish the windows...we used skid wood onced again..really this is practically all we have been using.  They turned out beautiful...I look at them and see art lol!









Yesterday James and Katie came and we began working on the living room floor.  This is going to be an allllll week project.  Till next week!
Be well,
Lisa
