I know it’s been a while since I updated our progress with the home repair, remodel, whatever you want to call it. so I have a new gallery for you! Click here to see a before and after gallery and get a better idea of what we’ve changed so far.
Dh just put up the shelves in my pantry last Saturday. Yea! I have shelves now! Next weekend, we tackle the main bathroom. Only rooms left in the house to fix up are the two bathrooms. There are a few closets that still need work, and some trim to paint still, but that’s it! After that it’s all outside stuff… like fixing up the one shed, and replacing the shed doors, tearing out the other shed, ripping out a few berry trees and possibly replacing them with something else.. We’re thinking of using next year’s refund to replace the deck. The wood is all splitting and splintering, it obviously hasn’t been weatherproofed in at least two or more years. We’re thinking of having the deck rebuilt using some sort of composite that will be low maintenance. After that I’ll probably need to re-do Lil’Chicano’s room in something a little more neutral. Eventually I want to give the kitchen a rag treatment, and probably do something with the archway.
But really, we aren’t all that far off from being done with the major work to make this “our home.” And really… It’s already feeling so much like home. I still have to pinch myself sometimes, because… DUDE!! We bought a house! How awesome is that?? 7 months later and the newness still hasn’t quite worn off. *S*
Wow – you’ve been busy – looks fabulous!
Thanks!!
