Meet Nancy, our new "tenant"

Newark, OH(Zone 5b)

Some of you know we recently renovated the basement into an apartment for my mother-in-law, Nancy. The waterproofing was done in mid-January and our contractor started working down there April 29. I believe he and the plumber wrapped up the very last bit of work on June 18. It was a long haul, but worth it.

For the waterproofing saga, see

For the "after" shots (the best - yay!), see see http://davesgarden.com/j/viewentry/30028/

And now, I give you Nancy, Howie's mom and our new housemate (tenant is hardly the word, but I can't edit the subject line)!

Hi Nancy! Looks like the kids really did the place up nicely for you! I have been watching Their progress on the place and amazed at how fast it has all come together. You have really made it into a delightfully cozy and inviting home.

Enjoy your new home. I know you will.

GW, was that shot taken in the new apartment? It looks like such a pleasant and cozy place. What a nice smile Nancy has.

Hi Nancy!

Hi Nancy! I LOVE the name *wink* - my dd's name too - and I think your new home is just darling and so cozy. Welcome to DG!

Georgetown, TX(Zone 8a)

Well, hi, Nancy. I love the name, too, and named my first bought doll Nancy.

I think you have managed to look like Howie, or he has managed to look like you, but somehow there's a little hint of Kimberley in there, as well. I can't imagine how it could be, but they do say if people stay together long enough they begin to look alike. But it's my personal opinion that you are prettier than Howie.

Congratulations on your new digs, and I hope every day there is a happy one for you.

Belfield, ND(Zone 4a)

Nice to meet you Nancy. You new place is lovely and very comfy looking. I think you'll love it there, and being close to Kimberley and Howie will be great!

You and Howie did good Kim and a warm welcome Nancy. Congratulations on your new abode and I hope you will be very happy!! Are you having a house warming party and can we come???? :-)

Georgetown, TX(Zone 8a)

Oh, please say yes, I do love housewarmings. My favorite thing to bring is photo frames and albums, but I can change.

Hi
This is Nancy. Thanks for all your good wishes on my new pad
I have really been enjoying it.It is very cozy. It did't take me long to settle in. It took Jonah, my dog a little longer. He wasn't sure what was going on, but he is beginning to get used to it. Thanks again
