Friday Fun 2

Right NOW! We are adding on and DH just tore off the entire front of our house. There is literally just a wall of plastic between my living area and the great outdoors. Luckily I'm traveling on business and will be on the road 4 out of the next 5 weeks. What a disaster!!!

When my parents added on to the back of the house. We had NO kitchen for a YEAR. Washed dishes in the bathtub and everything was cooked in the micro or a crock pot. Ugh!Also, where the new room would be, we were separated from the outdoors by a plywood wall. Joy. For A YEAR. During the winter (even in SoCal) we had to wear sweats, gloves, hats, etc. Christmas was particularly memorable that year.....

Paige, I hope it finishes on time (and on budget!)

And I thought the six month staircase project we just finished was a nightmare. I stand corrected!

Well would we like to start with the new bathroom floor? All the pipes in the house replaced? New furnace? All in the space of a week in January after I had broken my lease to move into the place I am in now. Doesn't seem bad, I realize, it was awful though, I spent plenty of time bawling my eyes out. We had the bathroom completely remodelled in January, again only a few days but we only have one bathroom and had to have our water off for a few days so we stayed out of town. 2 cats and 2 dogs in a hotel room, not so much fun. So in the big picture, not too bad, but bad enough for us.
