To-Do List

The work list is getting longer and longer.... There is quite a lot to fix in here to make this little house functional and nice to live in. Top of the list is the kitchen with bad plumbing, lifting laminate, cracked flooring, and cabinets that need repaired or replacing, the ancient windows (that don't fully fit their frames and that were painted closed several times aparently), the water-damaged and scratched hardwood floors, the garage, and the roof and eaves. Oh yeah, and the yards are totally dead, and the deck needs to be taken down before someone hurts themselves...







But there are some nice points, too - lots of beds for planting flowers and herbs and a nice long driveway for parking:


A bright side room with big sliding doors that will work for an office for Shaun and me:



And the living room fireplace (once we take off the rickety facade) appears to be a real brick craftsman fireplace underneath. The living room will be very cosy:
