guest bathroom vanity

We had the most challenging time getting the vanity out of the guest bathroom. Someone from the past took it upon themselves to glue it to the wall. Strange technique. The counter top is nice, as is the sink, but I am not sure I am going to be able to sell it for much on craigslist. It would be nice if we could. As it turns out, new vanities are not cheap.

Getting the toilet out was not difficult, butdoing the cuts around the sewer line is going to be a pain. I still need to finish that.

reno updates

The progress continues.
The floors progress. It is no small thing. It has been going well. But I want it over.
I am a becoming competent with the cuts. They are at times a challenge. This was the coat closet that holds the central alarm system.
The fireplace was painted tonight. Yun did a great job. Just the primer is an improvement. We will remove the slate tile and bring us into the 21st century.
I am in Mesa tomorrow and Yun will do second coat of primer/seal on the fireplace brick. On Thursday I hope to continue with floors as fireplace will be done where it meets the floor.

Matt and I worked on the house today to continue with the floors. Progress is slow. We finished one of spare rooms today. So many cuts.

house progress

Thanks to Matt the floors are making progress. All of my participation was worthless.

It looks great and we are quite happy with it.

We opened up the kitchen to widen the entrance to the dining room.

And then we added a pantry to the kitchen.
