Week 1

Week 1 seemed to be about spending money. This is probably one of my favorite parts of this project. It has been a ton of fun designing the apartment part of our house and finally getting to buy all of the materials to create it was awesome! Plus we can learn from our mistakes on the third floor (hey we don’t have to live there) and this will make designing the first 2 floors even more fun! We also ordered our garage doors purchase and installed the service door. We have even started to receive some of this material which is extra exciting – we have a fridge!

We also got to do a walk through with our contractor and finalize some of our plans. He won’t be starting until March 16th, but he is getting some materials ordered including our new windows for the 2nd and 3rd floors. This is the first time I have gotten to meet him and he seems like a nice guy. Anyone out there looking for a general contractor – I’ll let you know if he is any good.

We began some of the demo this week and boy are we both sore!
