I start this post with the news that we are all counter signed and are only waiting for closing for the house to be ours!!! I am excited that we are very close to having a home again. We are set to close around the end of September but we hope to capitalized on our fortunate situation and do a few things to the house before we move in.
Here are a few of the things that either have to be done or I would like to do:
make all the plumbing work
replace faucets especially leaking ones
repair sheetrock damage
install new baseboards around fireplace
paint the inside of the house
install a vent in one of the bathrooms
remodel kitchen and install new cabinetry and island
remodel master bath by knocking out a closet and enlarging the shower
modify the step down in the garage
move some shelving in the garage
replace all light fixtures with updated ones
install fans in all bedrooms
move a light fixture in one of the bedrooms to the center of the room
replace all outlet covers and some of the outlets
remove all live hanging wiring
replace counter top in one of the bathrooms
tile all bathrooms
install updated mirrors in the bathrooms
install new locks on exterior doors
remove a nonfunctioning spa
install a deck on the kitchen that wraps around the to the back bedroom
remove the deck in the front of the house
It is an extensive list but one that we can accomplish over time. I would say I would like to complete about 1/4 of it before we move in. We would like to try to move in by Thanksgiving or Christmas. Please continue to pray for us and this adventure that we are on. We will be searching out good contractors to do some of it so if you have an reccomendations please pass them on. Free labor is also good if you feel so inclined to donate some time and or any special skills that you have.
