07 July 2007, Well, I've been home for three weeks now. And it's rained the entire time. We got a break yesterday but are expecting more today and the rest of this week. It's so soggy out here right now that we have postponed our 4th of July party out here because I can't get a dock built for the front yard. I've seen firework shows cancelled because it was too dry but never because it was too wet, till this year. But you know what, I'm home and everything is great.
We started on Miss Dub's bathroom this weekend.
We are going to replace just about everything and give it a spruce up along with a fresh coat of paint for the bedroom.
This door opens into my home office, so it goes away and I can use the wall space.
We are pulling up this vinyl flooring and will replace with 6" x 6" sage green tiles.
Mrs. Dub is ready for me to finish this project up so I can start on the kitchen, we have big plans for it, just haven't figured out how we are going to pay for it. I'll keep you posted.
Miss Dub has agreed to allow the public to name the soon to be born goats. Now the possibility of having two kids exists, so she will pick the top two boy and girl names to be used, so go over to her site and cast your vote.
Be safe and have a great day.

So in the time it took you to write this post, you could have pulled out the shower stall? Get back to work! Just because I'm not there to supervise doesn't mean I can't monitor your progress (or lack thereof). I can just see the two of you now, X-Box control in one and hand and a hammer in the other. Don't worry, I'll be home soon and I'll "Git-R-Done"!

Good to see you have started in on that "Honey Do" list! I have a sneaky feeling you're going to be at it for some time!

Hope it dries out for you soon!

Remodeling a bathroom is fun. Hubby recently did that. It's tough, hard work. Be patient it has a wonderful outcome.

Be sure to take before during and after shots!

Just because I blogged about your inability to complete a project, you get all bent out of shape! That toilet better not be in my parking spot when I get home today!

Travis Cody said...

Oh bathroom remodels! That's second on my list after hardwood floors I think.

Would any of you guys care to come get rid of the lovely indoor-outdoor carpet I have in my kitchen? Yes, that's right, my kitchen!!!
It will be about another six months before we're able to pull it up and I'm slowly going nuts...
Have fun, Sgt. Dub! Oh, and send us some of that rain, too, would you? It's supposed to be 111° here by Thursday!
~~~Blessings~~~

Thank you!

Kila said...

Good luck with the project!

The rain has got to be better then the heat and sand you were in. Happy belated 4th, my son returned to Iraq on Sunday. :-(

So, when you're done with that, could you come out here and re-do our master shower stall? I mean, after you finish your X-box game and all...

Desert Songbird said...

Oh, and D? You got the date wrong. Monday was the 2nd, not the 7th! Still on Afghanistan time, huh?

Sandee said...

Looks like you have much work ahead concerning all those honey-dos. I'll go over and vote in a couple. Have a great day. :)

You know Uncle Sheriff can help with that bath remodel. It only took him 4 years to get Mom's done. I'll be there next June to see the finished job, so you better get finished. No rain here and temps in 80s. Really odd for July in AK. Parents will be here 7/10. I can't wait but the house isn't ready yet. Hope ya'll are saving for your trip up here.
Luv ya,
AK Cuz
