What a relief.
Water heater has been replaced. Washer and Dryer have been hooked up. I have nothing else to say but a HUGE thanks to Phil (good friend I play volleyball with). He ran the show and taught me quite a bit at the same time.
It's a huge load off my mind because now, the house is livable (it would have been rough w/ no hot water !
I'm off tomorrow. Allyson's off tomorrow. Dad's off tomorrow. Can you guess what we'll be doing ? Packing and moving and raking leaves and moving shingles and cleaning and anything else :) Oh yeah, hanging the cabinets, too.
We're still moving on Saturday with (again) the help of friends. Ron's, Kevin, Ice's, Burnett's are the folks thus far. I think Dad will be back again on Saturday, too :) Well, it's night time for this guy. Only got 5 hours of sleep last night - I got stuck watching the last two episodes of 24 : Season 2. :)
Night !
Replace Roof.
Insulate the Attic.
Paint every room in the House.
Although it only took me about 15 seconds to write the above three tasks, it took a TON of effort by many to complete them. We are moving right along. Almost complete with painting the kitchen cabinets and also almost complete with replacing all of the drywall in the kitchen where the cabinets used to be.
Things left to do...
I've got a list at home, but I can't seem to remember (and don't have the energy to) list them all out again.
Some tasks :
Fix / replace water heater
Remove remaining carpet
Hook up washer and dryer
Remove remaining shingles / plywood
Move in
Replace ceiling fans
Clean
MOST IMPORTANTLY - Allyson and I have been humbled by the amount of help we have received in working on the house. I typically like things to be done in a particular way, so I prefer to do them myself, but everyone has been very detail oriented, and I can't say how nice it has been to finish a day on the roof to find that 4 rooms were painted while I wasn't around !!
Thanks to everyone who has helped. We REALLY appreciate everything :)
