Prez gets floors
Feb 6th, 2010 by posterous

Master Bedroom

 

hallway

 

theres a WHOLE kitchen in here. 

 

kid room

 

POWER UP!

gone is the carpet! in goes the laminate. ya. ya. real wood floors are just too damn costly when yr doing every single surface.  can’t wait to get over there with fluffy socks and go sliding around. 

also giving the condo a new power box. and changing the wires where we can. adding more outlets on some walls. 
a simple reno so far… 
i daresay i likely just jinxed myself!

tous pour un, un pour tous

well, progress is slow but steady on all 3 jobsites. i failed y’day and took no pictures. my day was a bit stressful. Team Meetings. who knew. 
so i leave you with a picture of part of my trusty crew (team if you will) for the past 11 months.  there’s 4 bodies missing too. Izzy & Armando deserve their own damn post.
the newest 2, they’ve just been with us for one week so i don’t have much to say other then they show up, work, clean up (but not to my or Mr CM’s exacting code, they’ll learn),
they know what they’re doing. i think the newest might work out. 

but i’ll tell ya true, i love my job.

Casa Rumz Jobsite
Jan 30th, 2010 by posterous
As the Lounge looked upon first Viewing. we made an offer upon second viewing  in March 2009

 

11/18/09 Ev moved out. So i took down her interior wall and opened up the space. note the icky tile floor. 

 

Egg’s room. as it looked when we installed the steel wrap around beam over this wood beam. 

 

(11/28/2010) Egg’s room as it looks currently. turns out his room is not sound proof. i know, right? why didn’t they build rooms to house noisy gamer rock music
playing teenagers. So because i can, i’ve ripped up his room. will rewire, insulate and hang VERY EXPENSIVE sound board sheet rock. 
also he will get new floor, as will the lounge and my office (Ev’s Ex-room)

 

Note: missing icky tile!! this is the view from Eggs door frame into the office & lounge. and River, my fat Bengal baby. 
she’s up for rehoming btw. tho she comes w/a gf. 

 

looking from pool deck into Lounge. can’t wait to see the new floor!!! i hope it’s as perfect as i’m expecting.

Rain Boots #fb
Jan 23rd, 2010 by posterous
Prez job site flooded.

 

IF you had told me when i bought these that in the future i’d be wearing them every single day for 5 days now i’da have said, 
“where do you think i’ll be living?? Portland?”  and sneered at you. IF i had known i’da bought some boots with more insulation and support. 
puddle jumping makes for ice cold tootsies after. AS it is i only bought these in NYC for a trip in NYC where it rained every.single.day.i.was.there.
NEVER thought i’d get more then two or three uses outta them. 

 

parking lot waves. over the drainage grate. it was 7 inches of water, in case yr wondering.

“Show some progress dammit!” #fb
Jan 22nd, 2010 by posterous
Okay! i’ll show you. but i’m fairly positive only 3 ppl care. 
Here’s some photos,but i’m sure, if the Ol’Ore could talk, she would make me take them down. they certainly don’t show her best side. 

11/18/09 -Sink

 

11/30/09 -No Sink

 

12/02/09 -No sink. No floor. No wall. she’s soooooo exposed. i feel bad for her. 

 

01/22/10 -Hi Almost sink, Almost floor. Almost walls. 

The sink is still in it’s original location. right down to her pipes, but those, the pipes, are new. as is damn near everything about this old whore.
