Oh I forgot this lil tidbit...this plumber at Lowes, big, burley, bearded, dude, biker type...this dude helped me immensely. Anyways, my burly dude Lowes best friends name is Joy. He brought me a lot of joy.

I spent my friday evening disassembling and demolishing the bathroom. Then I cleaned it all up, washed the tub and took my last bath in it. It was a good tub Tomorrow it goes, new one comes in and the walls come up . Next weekend is tile!
Fortunately, no surprises so far but I now get to see what shape the subfloor is in. |

Wall tile project this weekend. Fortunately, my sister and brother in law have a business that includes doing tile. It will be a fun project to do with my sister.

The tile project was a huge success---I did have to egde up and straighten a few that my sister put down a little crooked--GEZ. Good thing she finds humor in my anal alignment obsession.
This weekend--Tiling the bathroom floor, a little patch to the wall where I just might of punched thru with the reciprocating saw--OOOPS, and painting the bathroom and the other wall we had to open. I have to reopen the wall to move the shower valve back but that should be pretty easy! Repatch and viola the plumbing and bathroom will be done and checked off the list!! |

Thanks Jack. I also discovered the power of a self leveling cross laser....I would never have thought of that. It feels good to be almost be over the hump, I'm getting tired of spending weekends with the water off for one reason or another.
So do you know what you're painting yet? |

LOL sounds like you are going to be way to busy and not have near enough play time. Just wanted to tell you, cut your wood during the spring and late winter. It has plenty of time to dry before winter and you don't have to worry about poison ivy or snakes which I know Christie loves LOL

I am going to be working on building a raised garden this year. I have the wood and the corners (steel wedges). I just want to place it in the right spot for the sunlight. My biggest concern is my lil critters outback, esp. the owls. I have 2 owl families with small babies. I am not sure of how big the lil ones will be this spring. I know they are not eating rabbit, squirrels, or mice yet. They are just that small. But they grow.
I want to plant veggies this year. Maybe a brussel sprout bush, if room permits. |

My kitchen is my make over for this year,it's plenty big just not well planed out.At the moment it's sickly blue grey color ,yes all of it,not sure what color I want so I am going to pick up some samples to hopefully find one I like.Who ever painted it used this heavy,thick cheep paint so I may well tear everything off the walls and start over.The floor has the peel and stick flooring so you can gess that it's popping loose in places.My son bought 400 blocks of Italian marble that,where it's nice I doubt it is right for the kitchen floor being it's sort of rose color with a white pattern in it..nope, gonna work.

you could have a lot of fun with tile on the walls to cover up nasty paint. Besides if its got lead in it you don't want to create lead paint dust. I enjoy using the paint with primer already in it, covers ugly colour much better. Some of that marble would make a great pastry making area. Yummy. The local Restore has lots of fancy tile and accent tile. Would look wonderful in ethnic decor. ah well. I love projects. I would like to see before and after photos. Thanks for sharing Rockin! |

The laundry / bathroom I have been working on is almost finished. Just need plumber to install new sink/vanity and replace floor covering.
I need to take some almost done photos. Its been fun seeing the transformation. Replaced half of carpet in Den with friends help. So nice to get old nasty carpet out of here. Need more muscle help to get furniture in better places. |

Not a bad idea,I will see what I can add to it,I also was thinking of useing some tile behind the sink for back splatter protection.I also have a small counter space with 4 doors that's is an eye sore.It's going to be ripped out and a large work station put in with stainless steel lining under it plus a trash drop in one corner.I have a garbage eating insinkorator for what needs going into it. |
