While Working on the Door



While working on getting the door problems solved, I managed to complete several other tasks.
(1) designed and bought items needed for a simple storage system, that uses off the shelf items and does not involved building closets or adding doors,
(2) built a homemade sawdust toilet,
(3) ordered and received the plumbing appliances (sink and freestanding shower stall),
(4) built homemade platform for shower stall so that plumbing pipes can be installed inside the container,
(5) went to Mexico and bought a HUGE ceramic pot for use as the pot-in-pot homemade "fridge",
(6) began digging for rain drainage system around container, and
(7) located spots for greywater mulch basin, and compost bins.

What happened to all of your other posts and pictures?

I've enjoyed following your story, but today I could not find any of the old posts.

HI Aunt Carolyn... you truly are AMAZING! Maybe your non job income is a book about your life. I'd buy it.

Not sure you've heard the news, but Andre and I are due to have a baby in Sept. :-) Maybe you can swing back to here to visit before you head back to New Mexico :-)

Take care and God Bless,
Jennifer

O boy! So glad to hear of the progress. Wondered about the door/plumbing/etc. Now, any windows??? Only the glass in the door? We are so curious!!! Be careful and healthy.
