OK..............they say that a kitchen remodel takes about 7 months..................am I there yet?

 

The remodel project has gotten more intense.  When my wife was painting the kitchen, she moved the refrigerator a couple of times and then we headed out of  town for a week to visit family.  Needless to say, I now know that homeowners insurance DOES cover water damage to hardwood floors due to a leaking connection to the icemaker!  After a few weeks, we now have 200 square feet of new oak flooring and all 1000 square feet of floor refinished.

 

Oh well..................since we had to wait for the flooring project to be completed, the project moved beyond the first two rooms and now has headed into the dining, entry, and living rooms.  I removed the flooring in the living room and raised it approximately 2 inches with the install of radiant floor heating......continued the removal of electric baseboard heaters throughout the other rooms and am replacing trim........and repainted.........and replaced the carpet in the living room.........................whew!!!! 

 

I haven't gotten to play much HALO2 online with clanmates or friends lately, but hopefully I'll be on more consistently soon.  This whole thing started out as just a room being painted.  I should have kept my big mouth shut and just let her paint it..................instead, I've spent my entire summer working on the house.

 

On the bright side, she thinks I'm fabulous.

Summers should be spent working on the house anyway. Now when it's all said and done you won't have to feel guilty spending half your winter gaming! :) CodeMonkey
