Construction Site
a few posts ago, i was so excited about finally cleaning up my office/craft room area. i had taken some "before" shots (pretty lame actually) and was all set to take some "after" shots in preparation for a "before-after" post until something horrible happened.
j wrecked the house.
this is what the house looked like before (and still looks like from the front:
yeah, pretty "meh." i like the house on the inside (we've done tons of work on it AND it has tons of storage), but the exterior of this house has depressed the hell out of me every since i moved in. even the color reminds me of baby poo.
but the worse of it has been the condition of the windows.
most people would just replace their windows. but not j. nooooooooooooo. that would be too easy.
no, j decided to rip the house apart.
starting in the back, the ugly poo colored shingles were removed as were the old windows, frames and all. insulation was installed and in-laws were invited over for a "let's tyvek the house and install windows" party.
this is what the back of my house currently looks like. i'm not a huge fan of the tyvek look, but it's better than baby poo.
next phase of the project -- the west side.
