As you know, we have to have a whole new septic system installed to sell this house. The laws have changed since we built this house, 28 years ago. This is NOT something we want to do but we have to. So this beautiful, pink azalea is one of the bushes that has been sacrificed. This is how it looked this Spring. And this beautiful Japanese maple is still standing but wait til you see what has happened around it.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOO82pQZRctCiawhy3rg6ACgz8xB5Mil-A7eXFnzutWP_Xhz1-hi8z_Xvgf-dLLPLWs_tyL-VvTCbB0qWiI85AB9HXFFd9zjF4booX5uxKBJqJItVIxLDsOfXJUP_uzguNh3KXXL_HoMF8/s1600/IMG_0734.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" sca="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOO82pQZRctCiawhy3rg6ACgz8xB5Mil-A7eXFnzutWP_Xhz1-hi8z_Xvgf-dLLPLWs_tyL-VvTCbB0qWiI85AB9HXFFd9zjF4booX5uxKBJqJItVIxLDsOfXJUP_uzguNh3KXXL_HoMF8/s640/IMG_0734.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> This is a view looking down from the back deck towards the pond.

When they were digging here, they uncovered the 2 pipes that come out from the house from the geothermal heat pump and also the plumbing and septic. But when they uncovered them they knocked them backwards and BROKE one so water was pouring out. It LOOKED like it was coming from INSIDE the house but after alot of running around and fright, they discovered it was broken OUTSIDE and were able to fix it. Thank God, that would have meant ALOT of problems!!!!

I will show you where we are on the NEW house soon. They HAVE dug the hole and today were supposed to start doing the footings.

I have painted a lot of the trim that grey color. I did not need to have a special color mixed up, but lucked into the exact color called, ironically, Grand Smoky Mountain, from Colorplace at Walmart. My dad told me that my grandfather sold "Battleship Grey" in his store, so that is probably what this really is. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEha0iDfF23pNBq89CdtuRGOWNffuyN6tOVnuvR7v1TLVwrskYX0Eq97J-NR8g93stPlho12VeDDTJnIHYMPAl_W_5kvrn_aTt-PWcQrp2g_c5jI0MprAf7liMl5nNDvYzbMjsnw6mq0GNI/s1600/hallbath21paintcolor.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEha0iDfF23pNBq89CdtuRGOWNffuyN6tOVnuvR7v1TLVwrskYX0Eq97J-NR8g93stPlho12VeDDTJnIHYMPAl_W_5kvrn_aTt-PWcQrp2g_c5jI0MprAf7liMl5nNDvYzbMjsnw6mq0GNI/s640/hallbath21paintcolor.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I then sanded lightly and rubbed on a walnut water-based stain to really make it look like the old wood. I then cut square chicken wire to cover the back instead of using screen. I covered part of that with burlap because I don't want to see into the laundry room. Since the heat pump return is in there, I left the bottom with just chicken wire, plus it makes it not so monochromatic. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm6tlhkofbh3TMxKquVA2KcO3ONHeC4ZW8abZlVdVsoC8o6r8UfWXQnQFYd83IhDnnFeXZhJIsEP_-ROmRGSnDWIsE2gvY29Mf1bvBDgi8gO2c1E5onHlE2yJrSF4WNQsvPruthYU8VjM/s1600/screendoor8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm6tlhkofbh3TMxKquVA2KcO3ONHeC4ZW8abZlVdVsoC8o6r8UfWXQnQFYd83IhDnnFeXZhJIsEP_-ROmRGSnDWIsE2gvY29Mf1bvBDgi8gO2c1E5onHlE2yJrSF4WNQsvPruthYU8VjM/s640/screendoor8.jpg" width="426" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then we tried to hang it, which was challenging because it was not square.

I hope you are able to KEEP COOL on this sweltering day!!!!!!!!!!!OMGoodness, this is CRAZY hot! And I realize most of the nation is in the same boat. I told my son I was going to come to Florida to COOL OFF!!!!!!!!!!!:):) So, Tracy and Dave, and the 2 dogs, moved out and into their NEW HOME this past Sat. I was there every day til they went back to work on Thurs.  So today, Joe and I "restaged" the rooms for selling. We do have a showing today at 5:45! Please keep your fingers (and toes) crossed:):) This is the room that T and D were in for 5 months. The bed was on the wall where the cedar chest is now and their dresser was where THIS small piece is.
