Weekend O' Work

Time working at home this weekend:

Friday: 4-11pm
Saturday: 6am-10:30pm
Sunday: 11am-3pm

Yeah, replacing two interior bedroom, one garage entryway, and five closet doors (two not pictured) takes a long time. Riping out and hauling away the old trimming, doors, and door jams, then painting all the new doors and jams, then installing the new doors (straight, plumb, and level) then installing the door knobs and hardware, then painting the new trim, then cutting and installing the new trim, and cleaning up takes a long time.

Its strange not living in the same town as my dad, because not only is he not here to help me do work on the house, but I also can't borrow any of his tools. However, I didn't let that stop me and I charged the project. I feel pretty good about the difference this makes to our house. We have quite a bit of wood siding, so installing light colored doors really helps brighten the house. I am looking forward to d0ing even more work (installing Pergo flooring and having some carpet installed) in the future.
