It's weird to come home to a different house. Tonight I walked in the kitchen and it felt like a barn. No flooring, no ceiling, just beams, and lots of brown old wood. Things are moving fast. The guys are really doing a great job minimizing dust and the mess.
It's really neat to see the innards of this old house. Picking apart the walls gives us hints of the way rooms used to look. We found that behind our bathroom mirror was a framed recess for a medicine cabinet. The old sash weights in the windows are pretty cool too, they look like big, five pound hotdogs.
Apparently our bathroom was remodeled in the 90's. Somebody turned the shower 90ยบ, and took 75% out of a huge closet in the 3rd bathroom. At one point, it was a walk in closet with a window facing north (and we're taking it back to that floorplan).
We'll keep you posted on the progress. Cabinets and plumber get working on Monday.
