Housework

Our house is a little odd right now. We've had roofers around for a month or more putting on lovely, heavy-gauge, red steel. That includes a skylight in the bedroom.

We've also had some deck railings yanked off, and are getting our carport roof/deck re-surfaced.

In doors it is busy, too. The master bathroom tub is gone, and the replacement is coming. There is already a brand new sink and matching taps installed. There is going to be a new floor, and gorgeous glass tile wrapping the tub area.

The kitchen floor has been redone, and the old dishwasher sent away. The new dishwasher awaits the plumber; probably tomorrow.

We've also bought basement flooring for me to install after I retire.

Other future plans have the main floor bathroom getting totally redone. We also need a new oven, as the current one is busted.

I can't imagine how people go through this with time limits, or kids, or limited budgets.

Anyhow, we should have our kitchen back monetarily. The ensuite will take longer.

That will leave just the stuff that hasn't already begun; the basement floor, the oven, and the middle bathroom.

Things will be better when it's all done. I don't consider it a retirement project of any sort. If I could wave a wand and have all the work completed, I would.

It all takes time.
