'He is tired' is probably the understatement of the week....but after coming off a long summer, Chris has literally thrown himself and all his spare time into this reno....for the good of his family. I feel for him....this is so much bigger than we anticipated...and here is an example: the bathroom of the flip: ugly right? Even, unfortunatly, uglier underneath once he ripped it all out......
to the mud!!! He is the kind of guy that needs to have things done right....so when he see mold or anything that looks off---its gone....hence why you can see through to the basement in this shot!! But look how happy he still looks holding that hammer!!!
And, sigh, the ugly kitchen!! The cabinets are now in, but i don't have that shot yet....but its looking SO good! I would be overwhelmed....he just keeps his head down and keeps plugging....i try not to say anything (because the last few days, he has been feeling discouraged and overwhelmed, i think......)--but he has some quiet time on his own...and the next day he flies into it---today he did ALL the plumbing in the bathroom, bought all the supplies, the subfloor and the lino and got everything done except the lino!!!! Fast hey??
Ta-da! Clean Kitchen!
My job is to keep the kids busy so he can work, it is SO stressful when the kids are around while we are trying to do something at the house....today is his day off and he put in 10 hours. We can't wait for it to be done and he has vowed he will never do this again......and we won't.....unless it's a SCREAMING deal!!
