We got so much done this weekend! Joe and our wonderful friend, Steve, got the bathroom floor completely pulled up. You are staring into the basement in this photo :)
Here is the one disappointment of the weekend. Today I found that someone had taken a screw and put tons of holes in the walls in the front room. Grrr. Now that just adds to the amount of work we have to do. I guess it must have seemed like a fun idea. Of course, when I questioned the kids about it, all I got was, "Not me!" This not me person gets into lots of mischief around our house.
Got the carpet and the carpet pad pulled. now the girls' room doesn't stink like random animal urine. They will be getting a fresh carpet before we move in. They have the only room in the house that has carpet. I wish we could afford to put down hardwood in their room.
We got the rug pulled out of this room, knocked down the small wall by the door and pulled all the staples out of the floor from the carpet. We picked up a shop vac today and that helped put us in a good mood. It was so helpful to clean up a lot of the grime to show that we are getting closer to a livable home.
This next week the roof is going to be worked on and so will the lead paint. Joe and I will clean up the mold problem, pull the staples out of Owen's floor, and start priming rooms. Hopefully we will also get around to sanding the popcorn ceilings out of 3 rooms. Joe and I had to high-five one another over the amount we got done this weekend though!!
