Uh Ohh

Stopped by my house today to check and make sure no one busted in and stole all my cabinets, appliances, etc. I was just about ready to go when something told me to check the basement, so I walked down the steps to find to my horror the basement had 2-3 inches of standing water. That is right. That stupid sump pump stopped working. My dad ending up having to walk me through the process of taking apart the old one then buying a new one and installing it. Oh geeze! At least I feel I am slowly becoming more handy around my own house.



More Progress

My Dad is sooooo awesome. All the cabinets he pretty much put in himself with a little help from my brother Michael. I was not crazy about the cabinet color when i picked it out but limited budget = limited colors. I wanted to go with a cream color but somehow white painted cabinets made the more go up 20%. My dad also installed that microwave and of course all the beautiful floor you see! I can't wait, my dad is AWESOME

Flooring

It is nice to finally see something going into the house rather than being pulled out. I do have to say the part of the floor that is in now looks amazing. I love my wood floor!! Brazilian walnut is awesome! And although I did not like the stain of cabinets I picked up I love them in the kitchen. Everything is coming together in there awesomely (if that is a word). I have a good feeling about this. Once my house is done I think I will absolutely love it.
