Full staircase between first and second floor sanded, varnished and nailed in, just the lower walls need sanding and painting. What an improvement. What a humongous chore. Just watching the work get done got me tired.
Next is taking down one more wall upstairs and installing a bathroom. That should take all winter. In the spring the kitchen will be refined and then that's it, other than driveway and front porch.
Then we collapse and start looking for the final place. Or maybe this is the final place. We're getting less and less energy to even entertain the idea of another move. But we would be wise to consider it in three or four years. No fixers.

Sounds nice - lots of work to accomplish that. Pictures?
Yes, before and after pictures, please! Very helpful to those of us who are working on projects of our own, and also fun to see what fellow posters have accomplished. And a project of that sort of scope really deserves pictures.

Before and after of all this remodeling, or before and after of us?
Hmmmm... why not both? But if I have to make a choice I really want to see the before and after photos of the stairs.
