Welcome to my site. I will be Chronicling the construction of our new home. Here is a brief history of my experiance in this area. I moved every few years as a child. As an adult I stayed in one house for 25 years, but helped remodel it four times. From a minor bath redo to adding an entire second story to the house. Now my husband and I have moved to AZ to care for my elderly parents and are undertaking to be the owner/builders of a custom home. Some people don't like change but I guess I'm not one of them. Or perhaps it is just limited change I like. To my husband's current dismay I helped build a 4000 square foot house in Romania in 2001. We took it from slab to fully furnished in 11 days. I therefore have meager patience for the pace of building here in Arizona.

Living in Color

I decided that since the vast majority of the walls in our last house were Antique White that it was time for a change. This house would have all the walls painted in color, not white. For the main, public areas we wanted to reflect the colors of the desert around us. For the master suite we wanted something which would accent a couple of watercolors we bought in St. Thomas. So a more tropical theme. Well..........we have color, but I'm not sure I dare to show it here or to anyone else until we get some flooring and furniture in to tone the color down!!!!!! I wonder what my painters thought when they put the two really bright colors on today!?! We didn't have the camera along today so there will be a delay anyway. (Maybe a long one depending on what they show!)
All the stucco companies are really busy all of a sudden. We have been promised a crew for this Monday and Tuesday, but since we had expected them this past Tuesday we will wait and see. Lots of other things are scheduled for this week. I'll let you know as they actually happen.
