Living Room Window

New living room window!

 John is adding flashing to the spare bedroom window...

Master paint/carpet/move in!

And we're up to date! Again, new work schedule (aka-being busy again!) has forced me to put a hold on this, but I'm back! and caught up on posts :)

 

Here is John's closet, ready to be framed in

New master window

The spot for the window above the bed, we decided to just completely paint over it (no fun artwork for now)

Our only source of light. This lamp has traveled from room to room, been so helpful!

My closet framed in

Our beautiful paint color! "Functional Grey". WE LOVE IT

My closet, closing off the closet in the spare to make this one. We still need to leave room for the crawl space, but love that we are expanding our storage! Getting excited to have all my things back in one place

Demo of the old (my) closet. Notice the yellow and green paint colors. These people...

My closet door :)

And John's...

Base is up!

Sanding.

Again with the chaos. I handled it much better this time (I think...)

John had a coworker come over to install the carpet-thus the mess! We went last weekend, picked it out, and it was done that afternoon.

It's an office again! We now after 9 months have two functional rooms!

Door storage-John had to trim down the doors once the carpet was installed.

And for the time being, running cable from the spare to the master. Classy. Will be finalizing cable once the TV is installed on the wall again.

Cutting down doors (on one of the nicest weekends in May-ever)

A little home for mold we noticed once the spare was cleaned out. John did a wonderful job of cleaning the mattress (no damage thank God). But this is now at the dump.

Still need crown, but final (ish) product!!!

Moving Bedrooms

Big weekend! Friday night we offically moved everything out of the master, and into the living room/spare room. We were in shambles all weekend. It felt like we didn't have any bedrooms anymore-had to move all the wet things from the master into the spare to dry with the dehumidifyer, then started ripping the master open. EVERYTHING was wet-we did LOTS of laundry.

Mold :(

Our new little TV setup

Drying and heating...

The new home for my dresser...

One last picture of water damage (we're interested to see what was behind this).

Drying the mattress, pillows, and rug

Here we go!

CHAOS

Since the box spring was moldy, we decided to just put the mattress on the ground. The bed frame is in the basement. We figured why take up more room if this is just temporary. We joke that we don't feel like we are in our house when we are in this room since its completely redone and DRY. It's like a vacation, right?

 

Saturday morning John loaded up the truck and went to the dump. Along with all the garbage, were about 5 rats! We found a spot where there is a small hole in the sidding, and thinking that is where they were coming in. Now we are letting the room air out, get dry, then insulate and put the walls up.

And by Sunday, we were organized again :)
