It's been over a month since the last post. My hubby has been in and out of the hospital, and is now on hospice care at home. His declining health has kept me from being able to post here or to keep up with other things. Meanwhile the work has gone on, and now the addition is finally complete, and completely paid for. Oh, there are a few details that are lagging, but very minor things, such as a missing piece of porch railing due to a couple of missing attachment brackets; some wallpaper that needs to be glued down after the flooding last summer, and some caulking.
So here are the finished photos:
The front view:
The north end.
The back, showing the upper deck, and the lattice.
The back walkway and staircase, covering the A/C unit and natural gas generator:
These are showing our rather unusual Christmas lights in the evening. We have colored bulbs in the can lights on the porch. Landscaping will wait for the spring and for the time to work on it.

I am still trying to get things organized, but I'm making steady progress. Here is my sewing room as it looks today:
and the craft room:
My desk area:
The downstairs bathroom now has the mirror in place. The left door covers the tankless water heater; the right one has the furnace for the addition.
We finally got the mirrors hung in the upstairs bathroom as well. I'm really pleased with them.

I may not post as often for the next few months due to my hubby's illness, but news of that and of other events will be posted here, so stay tuned! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you!
