I bought a house. It needed work. What I really didn't realize is that it needed ALOT of work.
Everything needs a new coat of paint. The bathrooms both are in fairly poor condition. The kitchen needs some updating.
What I'm trying to say is that this place appears to have been updated in the 80s. Yep, I stepped back in time to watching Back to Future I, II and III. I listen to all sorts of 80s tunes. And, I work, work and still work some more.
First things on my list: new appliances and carpet.
The new appliances were purchased on Friday and will be delivered Monday. (Yea!) The carpet has been ordered and they should be measuring my house in the next few days.
Before the carpet goes in, I want to repaint the ceilings. I'm not really sure what they have up there (whether it's oil or latex). That means primer. That went up yesterday on the 3 bedrooms and wil go up in the living room and hallway today.
One thing I thought was fairly cool is there is now ceiling paint that goes on pink and then dries white. I'm going to give that a try.
Other things I've found out about this place, the cold water on the kitchen sink doesn't work. This is a bit disappointing because that should have been caught by the home inspector. Oh well, what else will I find.
