Escape Tunnel

Isn't owning a house FABULOUS! I think so. The one thing I love the most are the little surprises you get like, your water main breaks! Oh the joys! So the contractors just started today and it's dark outside so here are a few pictures thus far of the inside of the house. I will take some of the drive way in the morning and keep you all posted! Home ownership ROCKS!

DAY...I don't even know anymore :)

I decided to stay on my home improvement kick and redo 2 of my 4 bathrooms. It started out with just some paint and I ended up replacing all toilets, sinks, faucets, mirrors, towel bars, toilet paper bars, and light fixtures :)

This is the before of the down stairs bathroom but both were pretty much exactly the same

Gotta love the 80's Hollywood lights

The new 1st floor bathroom
(First time I've done electric work, and I absolutly did electricut myself doing this one :))



The new 2nd floor bathroom. The pedestal is not under all the way because I have to wait for a plumber to come solder on new vales to my pipes. I'm good but not good enough to solder yet lol
DAY 8
Since I am in a home improvemnt mood with house being torn apart and retiling my master bathroom Sara decided to keep that wave a moving. Since they are preping their house to put on the market she was lucky enough to have a talented loving sister to come help. I went over and tiled her master bathroom and the hall bathroom to try to help them get ready to sell.

Day 1

My new driveway






This hole is the deepest in the house, it is right by the front door and runs about 4 /1/2 feet deep :)

I have been sealed in an confined upstairs
The harzard fence around my house

The massive 5 foot deep hole in the driveway, notice the nice heaping pile of dirt I have as well.

The deep hole and start of the trench


All doors and walls are sealed with plastic and taped


The two peices of duct tape are closing the slit the nice man made for me so I could get upstairs


Ain't that a beauty?


Imagine coming home to this! All i have to say is, omg I hope they know how to put it back together lol :)
