mike thinking about how to get that dang microwave out!
Just a quick update – last week we closed on the house! It was quite a whirlwind – we just returned from our Mexico trip and then had closing the very next day. The day after closing we met with Eric Brown from Thoughtcrib to have an initial consultation to discuss design and architectural ideas. He had lots of great ideas that we hadn’t thought of and we’re looking forward to seeing what he comes up with.
Yesterday, we arrived at the house for our first real day of demo! We arrived to find the power had not been turned on as I requested, and of course it was the hottest day of the year so far (105 degrees!). Just our luck. We worked anyways – I tore out the carpet, tack strips, and nails in the sunken living room and downstairs living room and started on the master bedroom, and Mike sealed and started painting the eaves outside and then started tearing out the kitchen appliances. We made visible progress and we were truly exhausted by the end of the day, after sweating in the sweltering heat. It was very rewarding though as we already begin to see our visions come to life!
