Slanty!

With impending cottage guests, we needed to scramble to find extra room for bodies. The warm, living kind. The other kind I could just toss out back into the poison ivy patch.

ahaha.

Yes.

One of the bunkies needed to get tidied up, and quick. We picked Slanty. I really should get signs made to label these guys. Slanty: slanted roof. Peaky: peaked roof.

It's the most presentable to start with and it doesn't smell like an old shoe on a hot day (like Peaky does).

They've both been pressed into service as crap repositories for the last few months while we renovated the main cottage. We took the old chesterfield (sofa, couch) out of Slanty and wedged it into Peaky. The coffee table has moved temporarily into the main cottage since we didn't have one. It's only temporary as Dad has promised to make me a coffee table/trunk/blanket box for my birthday. ☺ ♥

Then I cleaned, cleaned, cleaned, cleaned. Look at all the shop cloths I went through wiping things down!

We set up the extra queen-sized bed that came out of the bunk room and generally spruced the place up.

We found a few treasures, comme toujours.

There's this splendiferous clock. (what is it with this cottage and the whacktacular clocks?!) It's got a moose. And some fish. And a net. And something... black... and something... brown? It also needs a battery because it's only correct twice a day.

Then, there's the always exciting "what's under the bed!?"
Answer: empty pop bottles, paper towels, paper plates, plastic cups, plastic cutlery, bottle caps, gum wrappers and... not one, not two, but THREE dirty socks! Ick.

But it's cleaned now to the point that it's habitable

There's a twin bed in the closet in-law suite back bedroom. There's the queen bed in the living-room front bedroom.

And there's a wee dresser, microwave, and a water cooler.

It's still got warts. There are tiles missing from one edge of the ceiling. There are still two kinds of carpet in there. I'm not sure how air-tight the windows are, but they'll do. I hope it's comfy enough for them!
