We have officially started the biggest renovation undertaking we have ever attempted at our house....or anywhere!! Wow is all I can say. I'm excited and a wee bit nervous...but I plan to keep things updated here so I don't forget anything!!
So far we've had a big red dumpster out front for demo, the walls have been stripped to the studs and after two grueling days of wiring with my Dad, over half of the loft has newly run wiring!!! Jonnie has also lent a hand! Currently thanks to him we have bathroom walls, the framing all set for a cool pocket door to the new bathroom...and we got an amazing deal on a great tub (thanks for standing guard while people circled like vultures at Lowe's!) Progress progress!! I'll post more pictures as we go along...right now we are framing up a closet, moving storage doors, running a new vent duct and replacing more wiring!
I should note, when I say we, it's loosely. I am not doing anything besides supervising (there is so much dust and debris Jer barely lets me spend more than 15 minutes at a time up there!)...which is new and hard for me...I love digging into projects and makings things happen as a team. For now, Project Grow Greyson Linley is my main job...so I'll stick to that. And watch as things unfold while I get my head together for paint and decorating! Hey, supervising isn't such a bad gig!!
Wish us luck!! So far our biggest snafoos have been asbestos testing. I'm praying it stays that way!
