Stucco - vakolás

Yes, things have been speeding up! So 2 layers of stucco have been put on this week. We have to wait about ten days and then the last - colored - layer is next. We went on "color hunting" with Wayne yesterday, to check out houses in the neighborhood and see stucco colors. I'm leaning toward a yellowish-peachy, kinda muted color, because a brighter yellow (which we picked first) would stand out too much. Here are a few samples of the colors we like. 

Bizony, kezdenek felgyorsulni az események! 2 réteg vakolat felkerült a külső falra a héten. kb. 10 nap száradás után következik az utolsó, szinezett réteg.
Tegnap Wayne-nel szinvadászatra mentünk, a környékbeli házakat nézegettük meg. Egy sárgás-őszibarack-szerű szin felé hajlok, ami viszonylag visszafogott, mert egy erőteljesebb sárga (amit eredetileg választottunk) a közvetlen környezetből nagyon "kitűnne". A pasztellszinek jellemzőek a szomszédos házakra, igy én is valami hasonlóban gondolkodom.

Making progress

So we met this contractor last Saturday, but before that we had a fun adventure. As we were dropping off Easter Service invitation fliers of our church at the neighborhood, we came across a nice house with a few features that we plan to have. So Wayne rang and a lady answered the door. It turned out that they were Christians too. We made a compliment about their nice house, adding that we were planning to remodel our house too and we liked the features of theirs. The lady was like, oh my husband is a contractor and actually he's done all the work on our house. They even invited us in and showed us around...the icing on the cake was that it turned out that the husband was Croatian (I could tell he had some European accent:) and after I mentioned that we were from Hungary, he said 'oh, then we're neighbors' . I like these little “adventures” or coincidences, I know there are no coincidences though. Anyway, back to our meeting with the contractor. I can tell that it wa...

The big day:) / A nagy nap :)

Yes, the big day is here: we started the demolition on Monday, June 7th! The previous night was crazy, we had to clean out the whole house...Even though I had started it quite a few days earlier, still there was a lot in there. Clothes in the closets, kitchen utensils, lots of canned food in the pantry (I wonder why on earth we have to keep so much stuff in the pantry) folders in the file cabinet, toys,  you name it...Travis came over to help take out the big pieces, like the stove, TV, refrigerator etc. We were up till midnight, so exhausted by then that could hardly move :) We just pulled out everything, put them in boxes, not caring any more about sorting things...Now most of them are in boxes all around - in the shed, in the pool (this is our new storage place, it had been drained,of course:-) I'm sure it'll take days till we can find everything we need :) After the long, tiring day, we fell asleep really quickly in the motor home :) Monday morning came fast, the demo guys...
