Today we got our usual start and left the rental in Reseda around 10 am. Shortly before 11 am we got to our house. We managed to find some space in the garage for the stuff we had transported to the house. After we were done with that we started another day of painting. I'm sooooooo tired of painting!!!!! First on the list was some touch up work in the guest room. Harry managed to touch up the most of the spots that needed touching up before running out of paint. Guess we should have gotten a gallon of the accent paint instead of just a quart. Going to have to buy another quart...
The next thing on the agenda was to paint the door of the office and the door jam in the same white as the baseboards. Harry started on that project while I did a ton of touch up work in the living and dining room, mostly floor boards and ceiling.
About mid day Harry and I left to pick up more painting supplies and also we wanted to get some silver door knobs at Lowe’s. While we were out we picked up lunch as well.
After lunch I continued with the touch ups work in living, dining and TV room, while Harry put a second coat on the office door and on the door jam. 
While he did this I went out back to spray paint the door hinges and screws silver to make them the same as the new door knobs. We didn't want to have to buy all new hinges and figured this was the best solution as both Harry and I hate the gold/brass color. And I have to say they turned out pretty nice. By the time we ran out of daylight we were had spray painted all the screws and hinges for the office door.
Once we were home and ate some dinner we headed out to Staples to 
pick up our office desks. We did some research online and found a desk that we both liked.
Today also marks the one month anniversary of the day that we got the keys to the house ... and still we haven’t moved in !!!
One of these days!!!!
