Home improvement

[Geoff]

i thought u had a house in portsmith? did u post pics of ur house a few years back? u moved?

Nope. Out of Portsmouth. The boating is a lot better and the summer is 2 months longer. 50F water temps in July and nowhere to go but the Isle of Shoals didn't work for me.

Insulation. I should have blue board and skim coat by the end of the week.

Looks good Geoff. Indeed, "boating" is the right category...the 2010 home improvement = a canoe.

I'm a little behind. The insulation inspection didn't happen until Wednesday. The wallboard is now up:

The living room raised up 1 1/2 feet to 8 1/2 feet

My office. The wall facing the kitchen

 

[Geoff]

The kitchen cabinets are going in

Looks great, coming together!

The dishwasher went in today

The paint crew is in priming, doing the woodwork, and painting

The color on my Blackberry camera sucks but you get the idea. Counters go in today. Hardwood floors go in this week. Baseboard radiators. The final electrical. Final plumbing. If it rains, the painters will show up and do a second coat and do my study which only has primer so far.

What a transformation! Nice.

I like the yellow-and-white combo. It looks nice and cheery and summer-y.

Corian counter tops went in this morning

The first coat went on in my study

 

[Geoff]

The range hood got installed today

And more counter top pix

[Geoff]

Living room and kitchen floors are down. Still have my study and foyer to finish up before the flooring guy can come in and sand.

 

[TheBEast]

Looks awesome Geoff!

More kitchen shots

The study will get wrapped up tomorrow morning.
