Let the excitement continue...








Last week we discovered a pantry (6 ft by 3 ft) hidden behind a tall kitchen cupboard and the fireplace in the kitchen. We are excited about the "bonus" space and currently calling it Ella and Ollie's bedroom. :-) Our plan is to use it to house stereo, TV equipment and for a pantry.

Yesterday, we received a less pleasant surprise -- the news that our master bath was designed without considering the direction the joists run which presents some construction challenges because it isn't koshur to drill through joists (not that that stopped previous workmen in earlier work on the house...). The crew pulled down the ceiling of the kitchen giving us a temporary
"sky light" in the first level and a sneak preview of the 2nd floor. They are working to come up with solutions to facilitate the plumbing work that will take place over the next few days.
