Sweat Equity is our theme for today! My husband Brian is proof of this! Hot day, lots of grunt work!
Although the pictures may not show progress, we accomplished a lot today.
Removed all the wall paper on the main level. Only to find out there is more wall paper behind the panelling in the dining room!
All the carpets in the bedrooms are up and the bathrooms are almost dismantled.
All the electrical has been checked and is working well. 🙂 Not so much the plumbing though…more on that on Day 5!
So take a look and tell me if you think you see progress. Remember when it comes to renos it gets worse before it gets better!
