Please Pass the Cheese-martini...

Blame it on a mouse
Tomorrow, there will be no demolition.  We didn't pass the rat inspection, but not because there were actually signs of rats.  A mouse tripped one of the traps - hard to believe since there is no longer a front door on the house (salvage), but rather a nailed-on louvered closet door.  The place is probably a prime vacation spot for every neighborhood critter, I picture mice sipping cheese-infused martinis.  Fingers crossed we pass Monday's re-inspection for demolition on Tuesday.

Finally a little daylight
This weekend allowed us to take a closer look at the garageless lot in the daylight.  Looking good!  We can finally get a sense of the view from the back of the house.  The lack of daylight during the winter might make our ability to track progress a little challenging.  Curse you, Northern Climate!


Craigslist is taking a snooze
With no lack of effort on our part, our Craigslist bounty has taken a bit of a pause.  Possibly the parameters of our remaining items are narrowing, regardless it's been a real dry spell.  Our big wants are a front entry door, dining room and kitchen lighting, possibly a mantle, and a kid's bath tub.  We must not tire!
