where was I?

ohh, yea

The dishwasher is up and running again.. 8^)

The drywalling is nearing completion.. 8^)

That leaves very little to do

1.  put in the dorrs and handles on the cabinets

2. finish backsplash

3. plaster lots of seams

4. hang center lights

5. Trim!

6. New doors to florida room and basement stairwell

7. Paint!

Then there are the hallways and the florida room itself..

8^P

Electrics, insulation, drywall, floors, Trim, paint

Heck that seems like nothing at this point.. 8^P

Once the tile backsplash is done I will have the front door and the remains of last summers trim stripped.  The front door needs to look better, the nasty old paint job is ruining it up good… 8^P

In the meantime been looking at refinance options.

Thankfully all this work is turning into sweat equity.  I will be cashing out enough to pay off all old crappy bills, and get the dirt next door.  For a lower payment than I am currently making..

Sweet!

Also, by next year after the sale is done I will be looking at having a nice big credit rating again..   8^)

Finally this all works out with enough resource left over to get the replacement windows in the second floor and get the third floor done before the winter solstice party.  I live for that party.. Then I only need to survive one more crappy Wisconsin winter before trading that in for crappy Chicago winters..

8^)

Ivan!
