Well, we moved in November 9th and have been doing little projects and finishing up all of the loose ends. It took 4 weeks to get doorknobs on and the painting finished up. We've only had a window covering on the 8 foot living room window for 2 weeks. We are still all sharing 1 shower because of problems with the other two. But for the most part, we are settled. I am learning to be patient for the rest of my wish list to happen.
I wasn't going to post anymore because I don't want to post pictures of my crappy furniture and those "secret messes", but I had one person tell me that " I don't feel like there is any closure after having watched the process. It seems like such an anti-climactic end".
So here it is. It is still not complete but you can get the general idea.

Well-there's the look at the progress to date. Maybe there will be an update-maybe not. Blogspot is not my friend right now, but maybe we can reconcile after we get more done. Merry Christmas!
