The days and weeks have officially blurred together. There has been much progress on the house, so things are good. We even have a toilet, which means we can stop trekking down to my parents' house to pee! For awhile there it was just a hole in the floor, which reminded me of a certain Spanish highway rest stop. *Sigh* Memories.
The plan at this point looks like this:
Finish drywall (I am not very helpful here)
Pack
Paint (which means we need to decide on colours)
Pack
Put down hardwood (this looks like a daunting and tedious task. I thought you just snapped everything together like Lego. Turns out there are nails involved.)
Pack
Tile the bathroom (decide on tiles)
Pack
Install bathroom cabinets and fixtures (pick a bathroom vanity)
Pack
Install kitchen cabinets
Move
Somewhere in there we'll also have to buy some furniture and appliances, make several trips to the Salvation Army and of course, work, eat, sleep and party.
Here are some recent pics from the reno saga:
