Celebrating! Renovation is done, just small stuff left. Can finally place furniture, unpack, and start life in my new home.
It was a long, hot summer of living in a construction site, with chaos, noise, and dust everywhere. But worth it. My tired 1994 “contemporary” is fresh and breezy.
I had the best crew on Cape Cod: John Barrett tearing down and opening walls (and building the new ones, adding trim everywhere, shingling, and and and); Dan Knowlton, who understood and accomplished a complicated plumbing plan that involved relocating a bathroom and laundry, as well as adding a second floor laundry, new heating, and all the plumbing for the new kitchen; Brian Sullivan, “The Lone Painter” par excellence; and Jeff Mower, otherwise known as Jiffy Jeff, who can and does do whatever else is needed.
The guys came to work happy, razzed each other and me every chance they got, and did outstanding work. I’m happy to recommend them, and feel fortunate they were my crew.
The first time my grandgirl Taylor watched HGTV with me, she asked me after House Hunters what happened after the people found their house. I think she was 4 or 5 at the time, so I made it simple and told her that they moved in and lived happily ever after.
That’s me – happily ever after, for as long or as short as that may be.
