Woohoo weekends!


By kevin - Posted on 12 September 2005

Interesting weekend.

There was much working on the house.
We purchased a stove and painted B and D's room. It is a brick-ish red color.
T wanted to let them pick it out, and I tried to suggest guiding them toward something she could live with. I believe she said her mom gave her similar advice.
But she just let the boys choose what they wanted, so picked a dark red, so now the room looks smaller.
We may wait and see if there is paint left over from the kitchen or living room to do the other boys wall in their room.

Got the vynil tiles laid in the kitchen. They look good. I don't think T is happy with them, since she said she is not happy with them lol but we'll see what happens. We may split the tile so that we have some for the laundry room as well.
Then we would put tile T wants across the dining room.
It's just a good idea to tile the dining room since the kids are still a bit messy at meal times.
I also fixed the front door. The little window was broken but still in place so I got some plexiglass and a stained glass looking laminate and put that in. Also resealed the window with silicone since it was leaky.
Gonna seal all the windows around the house with silicone. Inside and out actually. I also was able to fix the tile issue in the kitchen where that one outlet wouldn't seat since the tile was blocking the screw hole. DREMMEL TOOLS ROCK OUT! Indeed.

Well a few more things to fix. The Master bath has to be finished and sealed. Carpet has to be purchased, and a dishwasher must be found before too long. We have found a model Tam likes but it is around $350 so we may have to wait a few months to get it.
I am trying to figure out a way to make some extra cash .
Wish me luck.
