We closed on the house yesterday.

We're officially home owners!

Now the fun starts: This weekend will be painting and planning. Next weekend (long holiday weekend) we'll be sanding and starting to finish the floors.

Congrats man! Awesome news indeed! Welcome to the other side of renting. :)

I suggest getting a legal pad for your to-do list. It will not get shorter. Ever. LOL!!

I was thinking just painting a wall with chalk board paint. When I run out of room there, I'll just do another wall.

It's funny how the list expands. A simple project of stripping some trim has now turned into pulling down some old paneling, cracked plaster, and now some insulation work and drywall.

And then you think...hey there is better insulation out there, why not get REALLY efficient insulation. I had them blow the expanding foam insulation in while redoing my house after Hurricane Ike. It's like living inside an icechest with the insulation value it has.

Your point is so true...it's way too hard to do just what you intend to do to repair...the urge to improve is WAY too strong.

Fortunately, I have a monetary valve that limits what and how much I can do.
