demo

Who is stressed?  Raise your hand if your face looks like it did (tho not as chubby) your freshman year of college because of the break outs... just me?  This phase was all about demo.  ripped out carpet and particle board underneath, knocked out walls, took off wallpaper, took out entire kitchen.  a lot has been done.  sometimes i would walk in and turn around and walk out, it's a tad overwhelming.  just a tad.  especially when all of the house is in three very large piles scattered in the driveway and around the house.  and when walker says, "don't touch that wire, it is live" or "watch out for mouse poop" or "looks like it is going to cost $1,000 just to get rid of trash" or "i stabbed myself in the ankle with a nail" or "we could do without a kitchen for 6 months, right?"...

riping up carpet and particle board to replace with plywood and then hardwoods on top.  most. fun. ever.

opening up this b*tch to see the view.

dining room.  beautiful.

like you care, but that is a load bearing wall.

walker decided to go ahead and rip out the entire kitchen.  awesome.

this is a closet that we are turning into another bedroom.

Remodels are mother effing stressful. on your time, your pocket book, your relationship, your face, your mom.  i do want to mention that walk man is doing an awesome job.  on both the budget and the work. i was blown away to walk in last week and see all of the new walls and rooms framed, it's coming together folks.

  1. Fun, right?!? We're still searching for our perfect little abode, but hoping not to have to have Walker-style skillz to make our place look presentable. So when's the party?
