The back Porch

Well we have been working feverishly to finish the back porch, put in our powder room and move the laundry up to the main level of the house. So far we have installed the cement board on the floor,  insulated the walls and roughed in some plumbing and electrical. Been a long couple days and crazy around our house. The plan for the back porch is to do a wall of cabinets across from the powder room and washer dryer and for a pantry. On the other side of the staircase we plan to do a wall of storage for shoes and coats.
We are tiling the whole back porch in a chocolate brown to match the color of the hardwood flooring and will even out and lower the ceiling to 8 feet the same as the rest of the house. Not sure what color to paint yet but I think some shade of blue to accent the washer and dryer and contrast the dark brown floors. Can't wait until we are at that stage. 
Also this week we have done all the finishing touches on the trim upstairs with the white paint, stained the front stair railing and all the wood in the living room. Looks great thus far.
Need to go and get passport photos this week and get that renewed as soon as possible. Also have to go in for my monthly bloodwork and screening, love getting poked and drained of my blood every month, sucks!
We need to build some walls today and frame the bathroom and pantry area and then start on the ceiling frame and get that insulated. I have to uninstall the baseboard heater in the back and we have Adam coming in next week from Direct Energy to extend our duct run into the back porch so we will finally have heat back there. That will be nice when you come in the door.
The house is almost done, a few little touch ups here and there and then yay we are finished except for the basement which will have to wait for a year or so and then it will be one huge all useful and beautiful house.
I think today may be a day off and we can relax for once this week. Neither of us slept great last night. But I am afraid that Matt was up half the night, poor thing, he was so sore from lifting dry wall and doing shit this week.
Well I need to get my act together today and get started here, been up for a few hours and have nothing done as of yet. I need to get laundry folded and take the dogs for a walk soon. For now I am going to relax a little bit longer and have another cup of coffee. Have a great day all and may your weekend be fabulous.
