My Ugly House: April 2010
http://mjmhome.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 25, 2010. We planted four types of berry bushes, two types of raspberries, one for just eating, the other for preserves. We won't get any fruit from those for 2 years though. Also a blueberry bush and a boysenberry bush. We should get some fruit from those this year. We also planted a veggie garden. We planted tomatoes. Sugar snap peas, yellow, green, and purple bell peppers, spinach, swiss. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bedroom Floor (part 2). Mirav and Eric's Portland Adventure.

My Ugly House: September 2009
http://mjmhome.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. So, I want to rant about all of the yard work that I did the other day while our friends, Devin and Jill Wiley, were in town from LA, but first, I will show the last picture of our plastic picket fence that will ever be taken. We have since taken it down, since it is plastic, and will be putting it on Craig's list for anyone who wants it. I still have to get several cords of firewood for the winter before it gets too much colder, let alone snows! Sunday, September 13, 2009.

My Ugly House: October 2009
http://mjmhome.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 4, 2009. Cabinet Finishing Touches and Lights! Well, not really, but we are sooooo close. The kitchen cabinet doors are finally done! We were missing one originally from the move in (previous owners must have broke one and thrown it out). So we took another one off to give to a carpenter as a template and asked for a duplicate. After that comes back, we will be done with the cabinets! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bedroom Floor (part 2). Mirav and Eric's Portland Adventure.

My Ugly House: July 2009
http://mjmhome.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 26, 2009. Before cutting the slate we layed some out to look at different patterns. We both liked the point layout the best but were warned by the tile place that it would be the most difficult. We decided to go with the brick layout because it is more special then the standard but easier. Sunday, July 12, 2009. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bedroom Floor (part 2).

Sunday, October 23, 2011. So, it has been forever since we have actually worked on anything for the house. Surprisingly enough, my last post was about a year ago. Well, we are starting two projects we have been wanting to do for a while now; skylights in the kitchen since it is so dark in there and a floor to ceiling stone fireplace. Lets see, this project started back on September 11 th. 2x3 foot skylights instead of 2x4. The nice thing about moving the electrical. The great part is that everything work...

Sunday, December 27, 2009. Such a busy time of year, oh, and the house. So, what has happened since November? On to the kitchen. We had to take overview photos and make some drawings of our kitchen for our counter tops. A work friend from W.L.

So, the existing back splash. Was made by the new contractor and basically an al...

My Ugly House: Final steps on the guest bathroom.
http://mjmhome.blogspot.com/2010/10/final-steps-on-guest-bathroom.html
Monday, October 18, 2010. Final steps on the guest bathroom. So, we had a few problems and a minor melt down in the process of completing the bathroom. Yes, they were measured, but for some reason, the hoses to the sink's. Two total take outs of the sinks. Finally, a trip to the Home Depot store, new hoses, a lot of new caulking, and now I can finish the bathroom.Pretty, isn't it? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Bedroom Floor (part 2).

Sunday, September 26, 2010. Focusing on the 2nd bath now.sort of. So we have put in the backboard for the new tile to go in the 2 nd. Bath It is going to take a bit of time to plan out the tile as we are going to lay it in a diamond pattern, then switch to normal square patter above that with an accent strip between the two. More complicated than Justin has done before, and will take more time to prepare. Break time from bathroom. A Homelight. Check it out, we finished the trim! Since our garage is on a ...
