Encouragement ...

I was reading through last year's posts the other day and came across a list I had made just after the assessor left last time. Here is the post. Here is the list along with updated comments about what we've actually accomplished since that time - I feel much better after seeing all the things checked off!

Big Items Left to Finish (As of August 18, 2006)

  • Urethane on stairs (Not really done, but not noticeable)
  • Hang drywall in third spare room (Done)
  • Hang drywall in back closet (Done)
  • Hang, paint and install doorknob on door to half-bath (Not painted, but done otherwise)
  • Crack-fill, prime, and paint third spare room and second spare room closet (Third bedroom done, second closet not done)
  • Crack-fill, prime, and paint master closet (Have a few coats of crack-fill on it)
  • Crack-fill, prime, and paint back hallway (Done)
  • Finish laying and grouting tile in kitchen (Done)
  • Build and install pantry and oven cupboards (Done)
  • Build and install upper cupboards (Done)
  • Build and install shelves and drawers in kitchen cupboards and master vanity
  • Build window returns (Done)
  • Install trim throughout (About half done)
Not too shabby!

Last night we didn't get anything done on the house. Tonight Peter is planning to install the rest of the baseboard on the main floor and possibly do another bedroom upstairs. I think I'm back to caulking and painting trim ... probably won't be any progress pictures from that, it's slow going!
