I had a good day today. Today is the first day of the blog but it is day thirty of the renos. I have been meaning to get this going for a month now but here we are off and running.
Today I managed to get the second and third walls down on the main floor. They are in what was and will be the kitchen. Right now we have a temp kitchen set up in the laundry room. Karen, (my wife) says its kind of like being at the cottage in the temp kitchen. The cabinets don’t match and the floor is a bit slanty.Our plan is to have the whole main floor opened up into one great room, therefore the walls, they must go. At one point when the first wall came down, (a bit quicker and with a bit more material than I had anticipated) my five year old daughter who was sitting in the other room drawing says with out looking up from her work “I think you got it that time Dad.” I think she is getting quite used to living in a renovation. It is amazing what people have done to this place over the last 130 something years. Its a bit late so tomorrow I will give a better idea of what the overall plans for the reno are and a bit more background on us and the house.
Nite
