here\'s some progress pics.... long week. Kyoko\'s grandma died on thursday, so one of my 2 days off was taken up by family affairs. long story short, my brother sanded my hardwood floors all day on saturday by himself. wotta guy.
House is a 1936 bungalow by Grover Cleveland golf course. owners painted everything flat white, And had white carpets. blech.....I will have this place looking like a 1900\'s mission / arts&crafts/craftsman bungalow in a week.

first pic looking out my dining room window, second is from the porch looking into the living room.
next is from dining room looking out the front...
-
I like that color. Looks great. Long way to go, but it will be fun for you.
-
yow, that place looks grrrrreat! Wish I had that handyman talent. Love the stone walkway and lil guardrail too, really adds to the look & atmosphere.
Good job, and post some progress if ya can ;)
ps- did ur grandma leave u that or is that the place u bought?
-
Sweet house chiz. You gotta throw a housewarming party and invite us all ;)
-
Thanks! This is the house I bought. It\'s not very big, but it\'s enough for now. After living in apartments for 15 years, this is luxury. Just having a place to grill is heaven.
we sanded & stained the floors this weekend, which sucked big time. Now 3 coats of poly, and we\'re good to go.
Next comes painting the trim, installing crown moulding, shoe moulding, and building a new mantle for the fireplace.
-
What would have been awesome is to have your baby help you with the poly.
Get him started out on the right foot.
-
her...and believe me she was huffing fumes via mommy yesterday.
-
nice crib chizz..:fro:..you guys are doin it big up north!.....keep us updated with the pics!

That\'s great dude.
Me and mine are starting to consider a house, but where we live is the richest burbs in chicago. Even a small condo goes for like 350 here.
Problem is, if anything we have to move CLOSER to the city, and it just keeps getting more expensive.
-
that\'s what you get for living in a real city, luke...;)
this place was $86,500. I could shoot a pelet gun and hit the Uni of Buffalo, the golf course, and university heights bar district. My neighborhood are mostly Indian and Asians...real mellow. The parking lot around the corner has a nightly cricket game. Plus there\'s a really nice gay dude 2 houses down who really takes care of his place. sorta keeps pressure on the neighbors.

it\'s made my Kichler...apparently it\'s discontinued, as it\'s not on their website. Kyoko\'s strating to hate it, so maybe I\'ll sell it...
Or if you got a little extra loot, there\'s this one:

That would classify as a chandalier? When I think of chandaliers, I think of this (https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fhome.global.co.za%2F%7Eucg%2Fchandalier%2FChandalier-small.jpg&hash=c74653f9a69f09ee4a1238513e2f60f17633d97c)
I always thought it was just called a light. Guess you learn something new everyday :)

I need to find something for my master bathroom. I don\'t want it to be foofoo though.
We are finally getting plumbing roughed in today. woohoo!!!!
That\'s a crazy light jizz. Looks like it\'s about to blast off. ANd it costs more than a freaking car.
