After looking at Pastors pics, I wish I had taken before & after pics of the shit i've been doing. I've had a buddy that knows what he is doing help me do most of this crap which has been great. I've learned the biggest hurdle that I face (other than being generally awkward and not handy) is I do not have "the right tools for the job". It makes the projects go much smoother and easier..
Anyways, i'm planning on getting my Condo listed March 1st. This weekend we are installing baseboard & door trim in the kitchen and the bathroom. I'm hoping to find prefinished stuff in the color that I like so I don't have to mess with that. Of course, i've never installed trim, but I heard it wasn't too difficult.
Then, painting. The only painting that will be somewhat difficult will be in the living room, where we have high ceilings. I think i'll let the wife do that part.
Then, carpet. I'm going to go out and get a bunch of estimates this or next weekend, and get it as cheap as possible.
Finally, just need to fix a bunch of little things. At one time in my bedrooms, at least one outlet was wired to the switch on the wall where you could hook up a lamp and it would turn it on, since there are no fixtures in the ceiling (weird). If I could find a way to re-wire them so they would work again (they stopped working after I replaced the receptacles, go figure), that would be nice. I thought I had replaced them wire for wire, but maybe I did not get the right receptacles? Hell if I know. Anyways, thanks for the help in this thread. When we get a house i'm sure I will need alot more of it.
