The pile of boxes which has dominated this space since our stuff was delivered is gradually shrinking. There is a section of bare floor, big enough for our rug and a single yoga/pilates session. The cats’ scratching cardboard and toys are by the window and they are loving the unobstructed view. Only the window and door trim (big job) are left to be painted. Book shelves are ready to be filled. More than an hour of vigorous scrubbing with vinegar and baking soda didn’t clean up the flagstone so we’ve got to find something that will take off the grime/stains. The redwood walls need to be waxed/fed; we’re hoping that will give them a nice luster.
