We have finally arrived at some of the fun stuff. I met with our interior decorator and we are selecting paint colors, area rugs, drapes and kitchen tile. Here are a few of the front runners. I like the way this tile has already been aged. Each tile is different and they have been pre-scratched. It would be nice to have something that looks as irregular as our old wood floors. The main thing I am "looking" for in the area rug is a soft texture. Nothing like a dense Persian rug under my toes on a cold morning. Nothing like a cold morning for that matter, haven't seen one of those for nearly 6 months.

| Tiny drapery swatch doesn't really give us much to work with. |

| The lighter tile for the kitchen is getting the most votes. |
When the floors were being refinished, our front porch became another hasty storage unit. We thought it would be 3 days, turns out it will be more like 3 months. We really missed sitting out there so I finally dragged it all to the back yard where it is still sitting under a tarp. The final floor treatment won't be done for another month. Someday we will look back and find this entertaining.
The short windows were removed and the original window openings re-opened. It won't even be noticeable once the windows are in and painted.

Stage 2 is about to begin, the plans are almost final and will go to the City soon.
