First window installed.
Ok, that wasn’t too hard after about 20 youtube videos.
Inside view, kitchen window:
7 pm and still going!
The bay window attempt:
More or less installed. A little less than more actually.
Inside view:
Home in time for dinner of celery sticks with peanut butter and to do a
couple hours of work on the computer.
But oh what a sense of accomplishment. I keep telling myself, every time I get
overwhelmed and think something is going to be impossible – “It aint rocket science.
I’m sure I can figure it out.”
It’s character building.
So after this I’m going to be quite the character!
Paul sent me the link to your blog. I am so impressed with your little house! You are doing a terrific job. I researched this kind of building when I was living with Mike in a semi-truck last year. We were planning on tearing off the sleeper and putting on a custom designed one, I had designed the new one. Your’s is twice as big as the one I was designing, so that is impressive too!
I can see how well you are building this and am impressed with the sheep’s wool insulation as well as the flashings etc. Lovely!!
I imagine you have the interior all planned but if you want me to share a few of the cooler space saving secrets I discovered, let me know! (have you seen the design for a mini pantry (can width) that fits inside the bathroom door frame?) .
Congratulations on making your dream a reality!
Love,
Elizabeth
Thanks for the encouragement , god knows I need it about now. I like the pantry in a door idea. I lay in bed at night kind of incredulous thinking how weird it is to dream of something for so long and now be sleeping in it. Cool.
Can’t wait to see an updated photo of your house!! 🙂
Miss hearing about you guys.
