November 1st!

That is the "goal" set for us to move back in. Yes, that is a Sunday, but I think it's just a general target. Everything looks very good to be able to meet that unofficial date since they are painting this week as well as finishing some electrical work.

The only things left:
  • Painting (inside and out)
  • Gutters/downspouts
  • Finish electric, HVAC, plumbing
  • Carpet
  • Hardwood final coats
  • Inspections
  • Clean-up and grade the yard
  • Locks/handles on doors
  • Shower door
  • Bath accessories
Lot of little things but won't take that long. But it definitely appears we will be back in before Christmas...Thanksgiving even. Hell, maybe even Halloween!

Garage Door!

At long last! Finally got rid of that stinkin' heavy door and replaced it with a brand new one. Woohoo!!





Yes, the door is kind of off center but that's just the way our house is...a little off center everywhere. It's quirky, but it's ours.

More to come Wednesday!

New Timeline??

This week: trim, doors, cabinets, perhaps a garage door and kitchen appliances
Next week: drywall repair and painting the house (interior and exterior), staining the deck

For those of you who voted that we'd be back in before Christmas, you will more than likely be right considering our new "goal" is to be back in by November 1

Yes, I said November 1!!!

That's just about 6 weeks away. We have a LOT left to do but we'll get it done!

More pics to come this week...check back

Doors and Trim

Trim work will be done all this week, which means doors, baseboards, casings, ledges, cabinets, and a slew of other things.

Trim (yeah, I know, not very exciting)

But these are our kitchen cabinets, which IS exciting

Oh yeah, the front porch is finished. We just need to paint the columns white.
