house tour

Two years of blogging, and can you believe it- all of 5 posts!  TOTAL!  I know, I know.  I can barely handle it.  

I know my posting has been sporadic at times, and I certainly have many updates I need to make, still... BUT I wanted to look back at the original and remind myself of how far it's come.  It's hard not to beat yourself up for not doing something every weekend or still having unfinished edges to a room.  I also have the silly dream that there are new readers that may not know how much of a dump I got myself into... so there's a little bit of bragging angled towards them.  Nannie-Nannie Boo-Boo!

Most of the before pictures were from the virtual tour the listing agent posted, as I forget my camera on move-in weekend.  Which was also demolition weekend.  I'll try to capture with my eloquent words how these rooms were when I was handed over the keys...

Rec Room

Now is when we start the list of outdated photos for me to update... starting with this guy.  We have curtains and a rug and other decorative items (see more here, here, here and here.)

Man cave

Long-overdue update #2.  These bookcases aren't even IN there anymore!  I mean, honestly.  This room has our DVD collection, our entertainment center, and a fabulous futon.

Guest Room #1

haHA!  This is what the room still looks like!  Take THAT, neglectfulness!  I hope to get curtains, a new pendant light, and paint the dressers....

Guest Room #2

More to come on this one.... (yes, that makes #3 out-of-date.)

Downstairs Bathroom

(Suspiciously missing.  #4.)

Kitchen

Working on this post... (technically, this is #5.)

Dining Room

And THIS one is spot-on!  Maybe a little shelf rearranging, but that is it!  Totally kicking butt.

Living Room

Uh, #6?  Yeah, working on this too.

Upstairs Bathroom

You've seen this one!!!

Office

Really really out-of-date, (#7,) but at least you see the wall paint and the rug?  That amounts to something, right?  RIGHT?!?!

Master Bedroom

BEFORE

AFTER

Done!

Front Yard

BEFORE

Sure sure, I will update this too.  #8.

Back Yard

BEFORE

AFTER

What is this, like the second one that is actually current?  Go me.

many of these should be "CURRENTLY" instead of AFTER...
