The List

Ok, so last night I didn't get a crash course in wallpaper removal or sanding. Heck, I didn't even get home till 8 something because the crazy traffic from the accident on 40 at Mt. Juliet. Then I got home and had to do a not so quick clean  up of our guest/play room for my brother in law who arrived at 4am this morning. 




After that and getting the kids to bed I didn't really feel like removing wallpaper. Plus I forgot to get light bulbs for my hall light so I would have had to do it in very minimally lit circumstances.


Instead I made this spiffy list!

It's all the things that as of right now I'm planning on accomplishing in the near future with lots more to add as I come up with them. This is in no particular order right now.

1. Remove the chair rail and all that entails , paint walls and trim in living room and hallway.
2. Remove living room closet bi-fold doors. Fix track and doors. Rehang.
3. Finish painting the kitchen walls and cabinets....that were started 2 years ago and are the whole reason for this.
4. Do something about the ugly louvered bi-fold doors to my laundry room closet. Paint or replace. Not sure yet.
5. New shelving with clothes hanging area in laundry closet
6. Rebuild the cabinet above the fridge in the kitchen the people before me knocked out.
7. Replace ugly kitchen linoleum floor with something nice.
8. Paint walls and trim in master bedroom.
9. Remove and replace stupid miniature sink and vanity in master bathroom.
10. Finish painting trim and vanity in main bathroom.
11. Remove aqua blue shower stall in master bathroom replace with new stall or some nice tile.
12. Replace old broke vent fan in main bathroom ceiling, new vanity light too!.
13. Replace ceiling light in living room with ceiling fan
14. Replace ceiling light in kid's rooms with ceiling fans.
15. Replace the ugly mismatched ceiling lights in kitchen with new matching flush mount lights. Maybe even some can lights!
16. Replace avocado green tub/shower, toilet & sink in main bath.
17. New tile floor in main bath.
18. Replace horrible green carpet in guest/play room.
19. Remove and replace all the horrible venetian blinds through out the house.
20. Remove the dreaded popcorn ceilings.
21. Hardwood floors!

And that's just inside... after the inside is done I'm set on moving to the outside but we'll work on that list later.

So that is my current list. Some of it won't happen till I have buku bucks to spend on my house, like the hardwood floors, but I can dream!

So tonight we're on for my crash course in wallpaper removal and sanding. Isn't it just exciting?!?!
