HERE"S MY NICE NEW ROOM

okay here it is I know it's small but it works for me the bathis not finished yet Jeff has to paint a room to get ready for the next renter so after that he will get it finished I'm so tired I realized that my 11 days off are coming to a end I guess it will be good to get back to work my job is not as hard work as I've done the last days of coarse Jeff is the one that has done all the work I'll take this time to brag a little about my son what can I say he's one of the hardest worker I know I'm beginning to see that if Jeff puts his mind on something he does it and the thing is it seems so easy to him like the attic he decided he would turn it in to rentable space the attic......have any of you been in a attic of a 100 yr old house their was no insulation in the roof you could see day light all around dirty dirty dirty but jeff he turned it to a nice studio apartment he had no experience at carpentry but in the end he amazed me it's like how did he do that insultation in the attic helped the whole house we were talking and realized he has now change every room of the house in some way he has turned non functional space in to space used wisely so here's to you Jeff it's so easy to see how you can take an early retirement so soon thanks Jeff for all you do for everyone

DAYS AWAY

we are getting closer to being finished i'm ready to get every thing back in order and have no more construction dust no more dry wall dust I've basicly being living in a big mess since last aug. 6 mo of work in the basemnt but it is diffently worth the wait one totally new room for jeff to rent and a total makeover of my room plus a personal bath and closet yeah and jeff found a nice storage space under the stairs when he removed the old wall to think i was living in that room is kind of creepy no more' hippie haven ' with fabric covering the yuk walls carpet that had been there for no one knows how long yuk again plus i must say a very good use of unused space no more hall no more going through two doors to get to my room it kinda seem like some kind of maze the way it was before i spent many hours looking at all that wasted space thinking how nice it would be to knock the wall down so we did yeah and it's going to be nice i can actually say i like my space in 'the house' now maybe it's not the smallest room in the house now plus i have a walk in closet and a bath with a tub i haven't had a tub in nearly 6 yrs so it's good i can just lock the door to the upstairs and have my own little place of coarse bill and matt will be down here but they don't really count it's all good anyway i think the paint on the doors are dry so i can turn them and paint the other side it's nice that jeff was able to recycle two doors one from up stairs and one is from some doors he bought this summer at yard sale that came out of an old house like this one and the doors matched our doors so that was a good find for him since he's always making a new room that needs a door okay i'll post photos later if i remember to take some remind me to take pics someone
