And actually since I have done anything with the house.<br />
<br />
I west back to school soon after the bedroom was finished. And then have just been busy with like. <br />
<br />
Of course that means, I still have not finished the painting. It's just the stupid trim. But it needs to be finished. I think I might end up hiring someone to finish it this spring. We will see. <br />
<br />
Right now we are in the middle of doing a new addition to the house. We took off the old enclosed back porch.<br />
<br />
New addition will include an official laundry room. I am excited about that.<br />
<br />
But the thing I am most excited about is adding the off street parking. My house was built in 1897. <br />
Parking around here is a pain. There is a private high school a block away. Between that and all of the neighbors trying to find parking, it makes it hard to find a parking spot some nights.<br />
<br />
This will also add value to the house. This will help when we decide to sell the house.<br />
<br />
I have started a new blog for the new addition. You can find it by going to my profile. <br />
<br />
I think this should be the last post for this blog.gypsy68http://www.blogger.com/profile/08782852057748502917noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5967258141916990239.post-16853759844089221232010-04-09T10:50:00.000-07:002010-04-09T11:22:01.121-07:00Project almost finishedThe finish is almost here. The inspector will come this next Monday - April 12. After they sign off, I can then move back upstairs. There will still be some things to do. Some touch up painting. All of the doors and trim need to be painted, but I will get to that over time.<br /><br /><strong>Current pictures:</strong><br />You can see the new carpet, and the hand rail. (hand rail and post will be painted in a semi-gloss white, along with all of the trim.)<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSTwmYQ9eRzICHAoOLiA7OKVwYUCsHQYJd3TdBeqrunIKxd4hqmdJDuCEUaPvGl8ClbRv382GAenOrZ8a83bu1GJw0v_ANQtUvwlkkH-jmwbuV5CYzdKg5Bc1vHIz-VnM8f85pekVw68so/s1600/upstairsremodel+002.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5458198147418610978" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSTwmYQ9eRzICHAoOLiA7OKVwYUCsHQYJd3TdBeqrunIKxd4hqmdJDuCEUaPvGl8ClbRv382GAenOrZ8a83bu1GJw0v_ANQtUvwlkkH-jmwbuV5CYzdKg5Bc1vHIz-VnM8f85pekVw68so/s320/upstairsremodel+002.jpg" border="0" /></a> I love the window at the top of the stairs, lets in lots of light.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIlOopFc7mPP1PyQ1eS7ifmOC55Ta92LA330NvKgZCaqLjqSxwk511MsAkKl6zscr6jADi1qR86IAgDzHPjoEB0nEl3-VUcEDwksgTMD74P-AqHyvtAYCFJpLh9m58GamDoyX5VPHAfEZW/s1600/upstairsremodel+001.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5458198138651977106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIlOopFc7mPP1PyQ1eS7ifmOC55Ta92LA330NvKgZCaqLjqSxwk511MsAkKl6zscr6jADi1qR86IAgDzHPjoEB0nEl3-VUcEDwksgTMD74P-AqHyvtAYCFJpLh9m58GamDoyX5VPHAfEZW/s320/upstairsremodel+001.jpg" border="0" /></a>The wall in front looks lavender, but it's not.

I hate rodents. I would rather a house full of spiders than rodents...(well maybe not full of spiders)<br /><br />Friday December 18<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">th</span>, Sara and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Elyja</span> came down to Portland. I was home waiting for mom to come back with my car. Hers was in the shop, so she took mine for the day. About 4 pm I heard what I thought was the cats up on the table. I got up to go and yell at them, when I walked into the dining room - I saw it. It was on a storage shelf. I screamed. The rat was up on the 2<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">nd</span> from top shelf. It froze. I panicked. Called mom to ask her how far she was. I cried. Yup not afraid to admit it. The stupid thing freaked me out! Again, I really, really hate rodents! <br /><br />I sat in the living room watching the rat. I didn't want to lose sight of him. Because then if it moved I would not know where it was. Better to know where it is. <br /><br />Mom, Sara (sister-in-law) and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Elyja</span>(nephew) came home. Rat still sat on the shelf. <br /><br />Around 9 pm, Fred (my sister's husband) brought Sam (my other nephew) over. Fred was going to get the rat. He took a little rake, and a cane, and made a swipe at the rat, the rat ran to the hall. Fred had it trapped by the bathroom door. He was just about to step on the rat, when the bathroom door opened. Sara had gone in to take a shower. She heard the noise in the front room, thought it was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Elyja</span> getting wild. She didn't know Fred was there. <br /><br />So... Sara opened the door to find a rat running in, and Fred running in after it. Thank god she at least how a towel around her. Sara left Fred and rat in the bathroom. The rat escaped through the false front between the wall and the vanity. If you well under neath the false front, you will find a hole. The rat found it. <br /><br />So at this point we figure the rat is gone. We figure the rat came in because of the cold, and all of that days demo made it come out of the basement. (our basement has a dirt floor)<br /><br />About 4 am, Sara wakes up in pain. The rat bit her arm while she was sleeping. She got out of the room...at some point we had these sticky rat things... so put those down... The rat came running out of the sewing room (this is were Sara was sleeping on a air mattress), ran right over the sticky things... and right by the cat. Who sat and watched. It ran into the kitchen and under the stove. At that point it had no way to get out. There are no holes in our kitchen walls for rodents to get in - or out. We called <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Orcan</span>, but 1: it was to early, and 2: they were not open on Saturdays. So then we called dad (Mark).<br /><br />Dad got there a built this huge rat trap. It was built so that the rat only had one way to escape from under the stove. After it was built, he then sprayed brake line cleaner under the stove to gas the rat out. It worked.

So I am doing that now. There isn't a huge difference, That I can tell. Of course I know a lot was done, I heard all of the pounding. But I don't' know enough about what was in the walls to know what has been taken out. Here are the 4 pictures I took this morning before today's demo started.<br /><br />The following is looking at what used to be a bathroom. Notice the tub is now missing. <br />The studs you see for the "low" wall, will be coming out and the new wall will go all the way to the outside of the house, there will be a new dormer so someone taller than 5'2 can use the bathroom.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQprh0yTBlR80VLMGgTogXAd7gQISCOqoSLe2VSrxwQHS7m66TqRdVLYrBlQqOL-xUkrCbuiOpwZiKKRsqRg4PcmGBnQYR0ZRjMn78MeUnRF0otH1sPpFT9aV1iuc49OEVWy5k9j9rQS61/s1600/upstairsremodel+001.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405190971569330402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQprh0yTBlR80VLMGgTogXAd7gQISCOqoSLe2VSrxwQHS7m66TqRdVLYrBlQqOL-xUkrCbuiOpwZiKKRsqRg4PcmGBnQYR0ZRjMn78MeUnRF0otH1sPpFT9aV1iuc49OEVWy5k9j9rQS61/s320/upstairsremodel+001.jpg" border="0" /></a> <div>Looking at the other half bath. The wall between the two bathrooms is completely gone now. The side that had the toilet will become a walk in closet. I am going to paint it hot pink and black. Shh don't tell my sister, as she is painting it, and already complaining that I want the room the bed to be in either a midnight blue, or a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">cobalt</span> blue, with white trim. When Jen and Fred bought their house, everything was blue. Not her favorite color. But the blue in her house was a tacky blue, so I can see why she hated it. And who knows by the time the room is done, I might have changed my mind again. Yesterday I wanted the front part hot pink and black. </div><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-QUhBB69UIY7xnvxNOA_McdLDpfS9dm2Ev1cSMVXOwgbfs-5X6QGuD3A9s3YMrJnmOvoDp9dLOXcC0FbULnMA3kf4xJ3IF4ANgm4E-0MPmovnx2eo5P_U1HPj7sKypVJPYBPD6YHoukYW/s1600/upstairsremodel+002.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405190833501340674" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-QUhBB69UIY7xnvxNOA_McdLDpfS9dm2Ev1cSMVXOwgbfs-5X6QGuD3A9s3YMrJnmOvoDp9dLOXcC0FbULnMA3kf4xJ3IF4ANgm4E-0MPmovnx2eo5P_U1HPj7sKypVJPYBPD6YHoukYW/s320/upstairsremodel+002.jpg" border="0" /></a> Taken from the front room looking towards the middle room.

Early this morning the cats were put out on the back porch (enclosed by walls and windows). I could here them meowing early in the morning, because they hate being shut back there. After the loud demo noises started, could not find them. Oreo, the male cat has come out of hiding a couple of times, when I am on the back porch. I think he figures he can sneak out. Not going to happen with the upstairs all opened up.<br /><br />Other than it sounding like the ceiling is going to fall in, I am very glad that it has finally started. Because that does mean there will be an end.<br /><br />I will take some pictures after the contractors leave tonight.</div><br /><div>The picture is of Oreo sleeping, and looking all cute, Ilove when they cover their little noses.

I spent a lot of time cleaning out the upstairs. Lucky for me, they will not need to make any changes on the storage closet, so Most of my stuff went into that. The rest is stored at dads house. <br /><br />Right now I am sleeping on an <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">air mattress</span> in the sewing room. The air mattress I am using takes up all of the floor space. (it's a queen), I never realized how much floor space my tent has, but I usually use this air mattress for camping, and I still have more room than what I have now.<br /><br />The house is cold. I feel like I can never get warmed up. <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Up to</span> 4 blankets on the air mattress now. With a sleeping bag <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">under</span> the bottom sheet. I am thinking of taking my nice heavy sleeping bag, that I use for camping, and using it as a blanket. Heat will get turned on, after the dormers are up. I am being cheap, and don't want to pay for the hot air leaving the house! <br /><br />I will post pictures once I get my computer set up. I have to down load them to my mac, then make a disk to put on moms computer.
