Tonight the kitten was sleeping so I was able to spend some time on the house again - I will pay for this solitude at approximately 6am when she decides it's time to be played with again.
I finished off the siding in the 2nd storey eaves, put another coat of enamel on the porch posts and added board roofing to the porch. I knew I didn't want dark stain on the roof but didn't really want to go with the the lighter stain or paint either - the solution, mix the stains and see what happens.
At this point all I have left to do is permanently install the fireplace, finish painting the dining room set, a few more coats of enamel on the trimwork/posts and finish the porch foundation (lost a piece to the kitten, will have to make a new one) and this thing is ready to go into a box! Just in time for the move, I couldn't have timed it better.
I am still debating putting boards on the porch floor, but that would involve altering the door and I'm fairly certain it's not moving any time soon. I guess the doors aren't hinged so they could be built up around and it wouldn't cause any further mechanical issues... but I'm too tired to make that decision tonight.
