It has been ages!!
Let’s see, since last I posted we have moved out of our basement apartment and into our new home (though it isn’t new, but new for us).
Here is what our house looked like when we moved in:
The Living Room
The Dining Room
The carpet is hideous. It is stained and gross and it is the same icky blue carpet through the entire house.
Plumbing issues here, plus our fridge was a big headache to clean and fix the fan inside. Lots of wasted food ><
The Laundry Room
Plumbing issues in here too due to a large water softener system that was broken.
The Master Bedroom
Hubby started painting right after we closed on the house.
The Master Bath
These wallpapered panels make me nauseous.
Toilet problems in here
The Library
My Craft Room (or future kid’s room) and guest bath
More plumbing and toilet problems in here.
Future Baby’s Room/ Niece and Nephew’s Room/ Guest Room
Tv Room
It took us about 4 days to move all of our stuff to the house. Since then we have had our major plumbing issues fixed. Our master bath toilet is okay (will have to maybe work more on it later). We still need to fix our guest toilet. I need to get a washing machine. I have been hand washing all of our laundry. Takes me over an hour to wash and rinse it all out.
Here is what we have accomplished so far.
we painted the master bedroom and tore out that stained blue carpet and began to install some laminate.
Kodi is liking the new floor.
I must say home renovation is really stressful and results in hubby and I grumping at each other and me saying everything from “you butt,” to “you’re rat poop!” (seems the house was the home of mice and even squirrels before be bought it. Vacuumed up lots of acorns.)
But we’re still determined and every morning we’re still smiling
On the move up here, Kodi decided to lay on my shoulders as I drove the 1 hr and 30 minutes to get here.
