I wanna hear more from you. When I was in college, I chose a roommate who turned out to be gay. Didn't bother me nor my girlfriend who worked with 'James' at the time at Lipman and Wolf.
Tomorrow meet with a rep to choose blinds and curtains. It's a three hour window. Not wanting to do nothing, I am bringing plants from current garden to transplant. Ordered stove and oven. Deck repair next week.
Hope your stove is natural gas with an overhead exhaust. Love my veggies and dearly miss my old garden.
Next project, new flooring for the house, other than bedrooms (keep rug) and bathrooms (will get a matching flooring to the one we did in the main bathroom). It was quite a hassle to bring down this 3.300lbs of floors down our steep driveway - as the delivery truck was too high and would run into branches. I am hoping they can finish it before I fly out of the country for a business trip - otherwise it would be up to the boss to handle it.
Yes, all the flooring is outside - because nothing is as much fun as walking on bare concrete in the house.
Our bedroom and laundry room are painted. Floor installation starts next week. Most screens missing and few there in bad condition so a company is going there tomorrow to measure windows for screens. Deck repair starts Thursday. Once the floor is in place I can start pre-moving.
Actually, my aunt and uncles house in Redlands, they have stained, heated, concrete floors throughout their mid century home. It's amazing.
I am sure it is beautiful, but hard to step on. We are moving from tiles to bamboo for that reason. Not a fan of hard floors for the house, honestly, since I like to walk barefoot.
About five years ago we put down red oak throughout our house except restrooms & utility rooms. I wanted to go bamboo but wife wanted oak. The Russian company put down a commercial grade of sealant/expoxy? a couple coats. We used Portland Hardwood Floors , family run, and they were terrific, very impressed with their craftsmanship. However, I still wish we'd had done bamboo as I really like the look it has. Next project is to have 2 baths remodeled and the tile is out of here, to much maintaining. Not sure yet what we want to use, maybe some of that engineered laminate?
Painting almost done. I wanted bamboo in my new garden but it's selling for $80. I don't know if that's Covid or tariffs or what. With difficulty I managed to dig out a section of bamboo from current garden along with a section of salvia. I had to cut bamboo back several feet to get it into my car. Screens arrive Friday, shades Monday. Delay in oven means I might move in a week before oven arrives. Probably won't do a lot of baking first few days.
We had Bamboo when we lived in Portland, that thing got out of hand very quickly. It was a real pest to ensure it remained where we wanted it to... Make sure you find a way to limit where it can grow - because if it can - it will spread...
Painting complete. I have a stove and screens on windows. Bathroom fan past repair. Monday shades arrive and work starts in flooring. Two outdoor sheds had bare unfinished floors. Previous owner had 18" square red clay tiles all over the yard. They are now floors in sheds. Toting them one at a time and laying side by side was a chore. I am tired.
