floorheating! now that's an idea. i don't suppose it would work with 3-centimeter travertino, would it?

i'm putting wood upstairs in the bedrooms, because there's nothing worse than being greeted w/ freezing cold tile on a winter morning (don't always want to wear slippers)...

Heiress said:

Electrical heating should be possible in any case But I don't think you can take travertino out to put the heating underneat

Whateva said:

ah well, there's nothing but rubble on our "floor" for the time being. i suppose we still have time to put in heating elements.

i'm going to inquire about this.

Heiress said:

Ow well, it's not all a mess, look at how creative our little boy is

The wall in the kitchen, knocked out, lots of power, water and other lines in the way


The frame of the wall in Kevin's bedroom.


A new heating installation in the attic.


Floor heating in the living room.

And you are moving in 6 days??

Oh Eva.. What a lot of work!!
Good luck honey!!

Too bad I don't have a car now.. I could come and help you with stuff.

You guys are kind of fast! Must be a Northern thing.

Down here, well, people kind of take their time... 'specially when it gets sunny.

Heiress said:

It's cold and the longer we take the more money we lose on rent etc. (we're dutch, hehe it's a money thing )

HowComeYouDontCallme said:

We're moving in 3 days to be exact, saturday is the big day, we only have a new floor, we can't use the heating for 6 weeks
We had a major set back with the new kitchen

I love my new house


whateva, we're gonna be happy there

fuck yeah! congratulations, you two! I love the living room downstairs... I know you'll do wonders with the place. Keep us posted!

Oh my goodness...

Everything is going to be fine hun..

You need chaos to create order! ( Groetjes van Rob )

see orgnote...

on the up side... you are moved in!!


for anyone else this would be
but from what the two of you have accomplished already
i am betting things will be sorted quickly!
(one room at a time lets get that ikea kitchen done! )

Hey, look at the bright side... at least you have a house to live in. The guys who are rebuilding my house have stopped work for two weeks, trying to figure out how to proceed with a wall. Well, this is the south.

I love your new floor. We almost went the way of the variable-sized tile. That's so hip.

emm said:

Yep, their working on it at this very moment (water and gas), this weekend we will start putting together the kitchen cabinets and Kevin's room will be done, so I can start walpapering and painting.

I hope somewhere next month it will start to feel like a home. The bathroom will have to wait I think, but who know's that might even get ready by than

Heiress said:

You're so right, I am happy, just a bit stressed out by the mess

I hope your house will turn out to be beautiful aswell (and soon)

Whateva said:

Moving is supposedly one of the most stressful experiences ever... you have the impression your life is lying all over the place!

I just hope that I don't have to move one more time before I finally get into my house. Looks like that might be the case, and I'm already packing. Oh well, don't have that much stuff anymore!

HowComeYouDontCallme said:

Thanks sweety, this will be wonderful order, cause the chaos is total



PS Stay strong, I hope you'll get through this allright, I'll be thinking about you.

congrats!!!

it's a lovely house.

It is beginning to look like home!

To you, and Alf, and his son.

Our son and our daughter

But to me it's still just a roof over our head

I hope it will soon look like and feel like a home

Whateva said:

Something went wrong, we drilled a hole in the gas line, now we are totally out of heating (except for the electrical thingies) and no hot water
