Sounds Like Somebody's Got a Case of the Mondays

Last week's plan of attack was to work from the basement up, but today's theme seemed more like a going out of business sale - "Everything Must Go!"  As you can see, more demo work has started outside as well as on the second floor.

Student room in the 1936 structure (north side of the house).  These appear to be the original hardwood floors. 


Second floor hallway.  Look at those gorgeous hardwoods!  They are in great shape, thanks to the carpet that was covering them.  And they'll stay looking good thanks to the new carpet to be installed.


On the west side, excavation has begun for the foundation of the new dining room.  There will be a crawl space underneath and a sunny patio above.


Goodbye, kitchenette sink...


On the south wing, the exterior brick is halfway removed, exposing the underlying cinderblock.

    Great way to keep alumni informed, is the fundraising complete? Perhaps you could add a Paypal button to the site for donations? Even a few buck here and there might help get the girls some "upgrades"! The blog is spreading and alums might be willing to donate now we know the project is off and running!

    Thanks, Aimee. I'm not gonna lie - I don't know how to add a Paypal button, but it's a great idea. Let me check with some fundraising gals to see what we need to do to make it happen.
