I Can't Believe....

....it's been so many months since I have posted. I guess my life is pretty boring and there is not much to write about.

Here are a few things that have happened since I wrote last:

 The bathroom project that we started over 4 months ago is the longest project we have EVER done. EVER!! I'm hoping to change that shortly. I refuse to use credit cards to complete the job, and, Jerry has been having problems with his back...and so our tiny little bathroom sits in a state of chaos.

I got very lucky and won a $1,000.00 shopping spree at Home Goods.

Work has been very busy, crazy busy for the last 6 months or so.

Here are a few things I'm hoping to do before summer is over:

A weekend getaway...anywhere.

Put a fresh coat of paint on some of the rooms in the house.

I would love to make a trip to the river, man I miss my trailer!

Have the front and back yard grass de-thached.

Have the trees trimmed.

I'll let you know how many I wind up actually getting done.

Deceiving!

Last month this is what the bathroom looked like.

It needed an updated look,

but we never dreamed it had so much damage hiding beneath the surface.

So this will be our before picture.

Back At It...and It Doesn't Look Good

We have been avoiding the bathroom. 

We have been so busy that there just wasn't time or energy to attack that room in the evenings. 

So, today we are back at it.

 HOLY COW PIES! ....what a job. 

We finally got the toilet, sink, and  flooring up, down to the sub-floor.We are going to have to replace all the cross boards, but we are hoping that the joist are pest free and sturdy. Our next step is to call an exterminator to see just how bad the damage is. We are pretty sure we are going to have to tent the house. We might just need a tent and camp in the back yard during the tenting....not really but it might be fun for a few days. I hear stay-cations are what people are doing lately. 

Here is what is going on with the demo:

 Jerry perfecting  his plumbers crack being a plumber. 

He is removing the sink and toilet.

 Next we need to finish removing the tiles and the plywood flooring.

 Termite damage on the sub-flooring.

Oh what a mess

Done for the day....

My knees are killing me!

Demo...Day 2

I can't tell you how thankful I am to our son, son in law, and grandson for coming over to take the tile from the walls today! My body was not willing to do a repeat of yesterday. They finished taking all the tile and cement backer board off the walls.

Matt hard at work.

Ryan hard at work.

demo debris

 more of the same, maybe we will be able to fit all this in the barrels next week.

 Demo day 2 finished. 

Thanks guys!!
