4388. magoseph - 9/9/2008 2:51:54 PM What a treat--I was just about to ask for recent pictures. Thank you, thoughtful. 4389. thoughtful - 9/9/2008 3:20:10 PM You're welcome! Can you tell I LOVE talking about the place???
Wabbit asked if i'm keeping a diary...i'm not...this running gag i'm doing here is as close as it gets. We are taking lots of pics tho and i'm filing them by date on my computer.
Everyone we've talked to says be sure you take pics of where all the pipes and such are underground and in the walls so we'll know where to find them in the future.
I've been starting to pick out plumbing fixtures and i'm most frustrated as i want an antiqued brass look but that look is OUT. Well, actually, it's just starting to come back in. So I came across newport brass fixtures which come in a wide variety of colors, but hubby talked to someone at the gym who said, without his solicitation, that he had 4 of them put in and had trouble with 4 out of the 4. Not good. so I'm still shopping. 4390. thoughtful - 9/9/2008 10:39:54 PM I think we've settled our sink issue by getting one with a built-in drain board and a larger sink.
This way i get the larger sink like I like and hubby has a place to put the dish rack like he likes. 4391. jexster - 9/14/2008 2:29:54 AM

I shared this over at RI. I shot this of my daughter in our front yard a few minutes ago. She was twirling around in her princess dress and I couldn't resist.
 4396. Jenerator - 10/6/2008 1:35:21 AM PS I choose/chose to not photoshop her birthmark out. It has lightened considerably naturally. 4397. judithathome - 10/6/2008 1:48:48 AM Jen, as I said over at RI, she is an adorable girl! I showed it to Keoni and neither one of us even noticed the birthmark...I have a dark brown one on the back of my leg and was mortified by it when I was young and when I met Keoni? He never even noticed it.
She is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous! 4398. thoughtful - 10/6/2008 2:28:23 AM Very sweet. 4399. thoughtful - 10/6/2008 2:42:23 AM House update
Moisture barrier going up on front gable before masonry goes on...back chimney has stone applied already and masons are getting ready to do the front stone.
Roof is on.
Inside some plumbing, some HVAC, electrician is coming on Monday and central vac outlets are in.

Roof is complete except around chimney and brackets for solar panels are now up. Deck flooring is in. 4401. thoughtful - 10/6/2008 2:46:15 AM Geothermal wells are in and the water well is next. That rotary rig is higher than the house!

 4403. thoughtful - 10/6/2008 2:49:31 AM Copper roof over front porch is in and hopefully still there...with copper scrap prices as high as they are, copper disappears pretty fast in unoccupied buildings. So far, so good.
 4404. Jenerator - 10/6/2008 2:55:08 AM Thank you very much Judith! (And Keoni) :-)
When she was born she had a pretty dark one on her forehead and one on the side of nose. Her pediatrician assured us it would go away, but would likely reappear when she was mad, hot or crying.
It's definitely lighter than before, but it's still there. I had forgotten until I saw the pic.

I have a small brown one the size of a dime on the back of my right leg. 4405. judithathome - 10/6/2008 3:39:12 AM Mine is the size of a 50 cent piece on the back of my left leg. (thigh)
(I had to ask Keoni which leg it was on!) 4406. arkymalarky - 10/6/2008 4:36:45 AM What a doll, Jen!!
Mose had birthmarks when she was little, as well. I don't think she has them now, but I don't know. My niece had a huge one on her upper forehead that they had to remove a few years ago. It was partially under her hair and that part of her hair was brown, then turned white (she's blonde) but the kind of birthmark it was has a chance of becoming cancerous, and when her hair changed there from brown to white the doctor decided it needed to be removed. 4407. arkymalarky - 10/6/2008 4:38:09 AM Amazing progress on the house, Thoughtful! When are y'all expecting to be finished?
