Running Water!

We finally got a plumber out to fix the last leaky pipe! The water is up and running and the upstairs bathroom is completely functional! Great news, because tomorrow we have someone coming out to look at the basement bathroom and we can start ripping that apart and getting it repaired.

It will be so nice to be out at the house and not have to drive somewhere to go to the bathroom! (Guys are so lucky...)

So, this is what we'll have to live with for awhile. Looks like heaven to me right now!

Month One- The Official "Before" Pictures

The garbage is gone!
The first couple of weeks were spent just removing garbage from the home and getting rid of most of the old carpeting. Wow! What a difference it's already made.
OK, in keeping an open mind... I'm posting the "before" pictures.
We have an idea of where we want it to go, but we're still in a bit of shock! There's so much to do.
