Thanks!

To Mom and Dad - thanks for helping at the house this weekend, and it was great to see you. We are definitely still in the stages of every completed task making our life much better. So thanks!

Good camera closet pictures

Eric borrowed a work camera. It is better than mine. Sigh.

New chair covers

My beautiful recovered chairs: Before (left) and after (right) - hopefully you can tell that without me saying!

As I was taking the old covers off, my mother says to me - we recovered those chairs on Vine Ave, which had to be before 1983. No wonder they were a little bit grimy!

Finished front

Less the front door.

I think it is very restful - which is hilarious because there is nothing restful about this house!



Painting update

All the tan is done in front (I heart paint sprayers!), and I am going to do the front brick today. It is just such an improvement. Will post pictures after I have done the brick.

We must address the front of the garage. It is a vast expanse of pure boredom. Eventually there will be a bump out and windows, which will fix the problem. That will be essential in the long term.

Exterior Painting Day 1

Before


After
I know this does not seem like an improvement, but I have always, always hated the dark brown. So I am actually loving the primer. No going back baby.


P.S. Eric, please learn how to say no to me. This is going to be a lot of work!

Jen's closet done

Well, to the casual observer anyway.

When everything is totally put back, I will put up some before and after shots. It is completely amazing. There is so much room in my closet now.

P.S. There are still a few pieces left!
