Since Eddie (my husband) and I bought our first house ever at the end of last year we have done a ton of projects. In the past 5 months we have already seen the good, the bad and the ugly. We purchased our home on Dec. 30, 08. The house was built in 1973, and was in great condition for its price, but needed a little updating. We have spent thousands at Lowes, and spent hours at Home Depot. We have became regular customers of the too. We know Lowes like a fat kid knows his cake.

-we have painted

-built a fence (the gate is still not on it.)

-added knobs to the kitchen cabinets and drawers.

-put in a new kitchen sink focet (well a contracter from Lowes did.)

-bought our first fridge (floor model at Best Buy, Whirl Pool, side by side for $600!..normally $1100 fridge.)

-and bought our first new set of furniture (which is still not delivered, HOME PLACE!)

-started taking down the wall papaer in the hall way, (pain in the ass, the previous owners painted over wall paper, we have to scrape it off in one inch pieces).

-started the land scaping, trimming palm trees, clearing out bushes and bought our very first weed wacker and lawn mower.

--and finally re-modeled the guest bathroom. This has been the biggest project of all, we thought we were going to be able to do it in one day, 6 weeks later it is almost finished. The previous owners had carpet in there (way nasty) so we tiled the floor, painted, added a chair rail, re-tiled the back of shower, new mirrors, shower knobs, shower head, and new fixtures. We also added a new light fixture, during this process my husband has been electricuted twice and thought he died. He is fine, and the electrician just left a few minutes ago. We now have light and power in both bathrooms. Yes, the problem was so ugly that for some reason the power was not working in the other bathroom as well. But I will say many thanks to my husband an father-in-laws hard work on this home project. They have been working every weekend to try and finsish this bathroom before our summer house guest arrive. Since they started this project there has only been one trip to the ER, Eddie had tendonitious in his wrist from tiling the floor.
