Home Renovation and Demolition. Really just Demolition

Here are some updates on the house. I've finally got some momentum on the house - mostly in the downward destruction direction. say that 3 times fast.. anyways. problem is 1) demo is cheaper than re-no and 2) I'm pretty clueless on some of the things that needs to be done but i'm learning as I go. I'll try to explain whats been done so far. And yes, the bathroom is still in its original state of disarray from the previous post.

This is the guest bedroom. Estupidos that lived here before painted over 2 layers of wallpaper that had started to lift in places. So I had to strip it. Seriously sucks. And if it looks like I have free labor, I do.



This is a different room - probably will be mine. There of course was a wallpaper border that was painted over that was lifting. Ugggh.




Here is me prepping the room...lots of dust






These ones are the 2 storage rooms that are in the basement. Looks like the constructed this random wall, that doesn't even reach the other wall...one room had shelves, the other was just empty. So I took my new hammer (the previous one's head kept falling off) and went to town. I even got blisters. I felt very SheRa-ish.

Awesome start on the bedrooms and nice work on the basement storage wall -- now to get all that junk outside -- has that happened? I am getting excited to come in April and see all your progress. Keep it up. Mom
