Beginning of the End

Finally, 365 days minus 79 days, we are nearing the end of our renovation. We bought our house nearly a year ago, and never, in my wildest dreams, imagined that we would:

1. Spend so much time demolishing, then building it back up
2. Spend so much money
3. Own our own compound mitre saw
4. Live with my Mom for most of our married life together

Time flies when you're having fun. It also seems to fly when you are living though hell.

I've attached some photos - all pre-reno - yes, this is the house we purchased with our hard earned money. Next post will give you a sense of what happened in the ensuing months.
