Let The Flooring Begin

Dining Room Flooring

So tonight was officially the first night of flooring.Had a little help from my father-in-law, but the end was just me working on it and it was slow going. I’m not sure how I’m going to get it all done by Friday. So tired tonight, glad tomorrow is a resting day for my 5K training.

    Working On A Bit of DIY Garage Door Repair

    ByTim Nolte
    The torsion spring winding today I ordered from Amazon arrived today so I got to work removing the old broken spring in order to measure so I could order the new one. Found some great detailed instructions on replacing and measuring the spring. Hopefully I can get the right spring ordered and get this garage door fixed so we can have out garage stall back.

  • New House Flooring, Day 2…Dining Room Done

    ByTim Nolte
    Tonight was flooring day #2. I initially had the help of my father-in-law and then my buddy Jon Kay arrived to give a hand. We wrapped things up at about 11pm and got just into the kitchen. We got all the underlayment in the kitchen set but there will be some initial crazy cutting required. The kitchen is smaller so hopefully it doesn’t go so bad. Once the kitchen is complete then appliances can be moved in, and the hallway can be completed. We’ll see how the rest of everything goes. So thankful for the help we’ve had getting things ready.

  • Cabinet Remodel, Finishing The Doors

    ByTim Nolte
    Today I needed to finish up cutting down the cabinet doors, the last part needed to make room for the microwave above the stove. I got the table saw out for the first time since selling our house almost 2 years ago. It’s been sitting in storage. I got them cut down by chopping the tops off. Then I used my father-in-law’s router to get the cabinet edge trimmed so they fit in the new reduced opening. I’ll be honest the sanding, mudding, and painting things are my least favorite thing to do. Anytime I get to build something new, or fix something, that’s when I have the most fun with these remodeling projects. I’ll be finishing out the day with the not so fun…

    Starting To See The Light

    ByTim Nolte
    So last night the kitchen flooring got done so today we got gas installed for the stove, and Internet installed. My brother-in-law helped me get our appliances moved in. I finished hooking up all the appliances tonight. Things are starting to feel a little less overwhelming. I do still have to finish the floor in the hallway, and there is a huge pile of junk in the garage that needs cutting down to be picked up on Monday. I so can’t wait for move in day and us finally just being here and getting settled in.

    A Post, A Post, At Last A Post

    ByTim Nolte
    So what have we been up to, well when I say we I mean me. So life has been a little crazy this past week, although I don’t expect it to calm down anytime soon. I’ve got a lot of things to do by this weekend. I’ve got a load of photos to scan and some more video to import. I don’t think I’ll be getting the Cantata CD’s done by Christmas, oh well. Ok I guess I’m getting a little ahead of myself. How about we go back to last week. So my last post was Wednesday. That night was youth group and the whole youth praise team was there to lead music. We were even able to get everything setup in the fellowship…
