March 5, 2015 Snow Day

We got one and a half bonus work days this week. (We were both off and working on the house Thursday, but I had to work Friday so 1 1/2, not 2.)  We got a pretty heavy sleet and snow Wednesday night so my work decided to close Thursday.  Deb went back to work on the cabinets and I got started getting the floors ready where the new master bath will go.
 
The door on the right is to be removed as is the fireplace. I wanted the fireplace to stay in the master bedroom.  Deb wanted it gone.  The fireplace and chimney have started pulling away from the house and a construction friend told us we would have a hard time keeping it sealed IF we could get it to stand back up straight so Deb won this battle.  We plan to put an exterior door where the fire place is and add a deck onto the back of the master bedroom.
 
 
Cole helped remove the cabinet doors and hardware over the weekend.
 
 
 
I really wish it was warm enough to do all the stripping and sanding outside, but until then Deb has been working in the dining room.
 
Deb made good headway the last two days and has gotten all the cabinet doors stripped and sanded with 60 grit paper.
 
 
 
Coming up next time....  Removal of the pine wall boards in the master bath and closet to prepare for the floor plan changes.
Now off we go to Monticello for a soccer tournament as soon as I hit publish!
