It snowed a lot yesterday and even though I expected the electrician who has stood me up before, not to show, he did. I now have my lights installed in the room above the garage. The facade of the moving barn door is done and being given additional coats of paint and should be ready to be hung later in the week. I am holding my breath but things are looking good. Maybe February will be a contractor free month. I'm hoping.
Ontario, NY
Good morning Sheila,
I hope it is warm where you are painting the barn door and hope to see a picture or two.
Make yourself a great day.

Hi john. I have been in this for over two years. Stay tuned.
Hello Raymond. The facade is in the garage for now. I'm betting with the impending snow, it will be for another week. TY.

How exciting. My husband and I love projects and when we moved into a new home 8 years ago, we thought we were going to love not having projects. Turns out, we were wrong. Next home will have some fixing to do. We love the transformation and gratification of making it our own. You'll have to share photos of the before and after Sheila. D

I know you will be glad when it is all done, but Mother Nature seems intent on blessing you with another foot or so of snow this week! Stay warm, enjoy the storm and know you are near the end of your project!

Hello Debb. I enjoy the process and the differences. That said, this has been ongoing for two and a half years now. Improvements and joy cpomes everyday but I think I am ready for normal fixes again. Thank you.
Hi Susan. Boy do you have that right. Can't mess with Mother nature for sure. Thanks.
Hello Dorie. There is never a done home, but I want a contractor free thought for a change. Enjoy your day. Thank you.

Hello Ed. Boy are you right. The remaining painting and the hang will happen when the weather clears, but the installation part was done. Stay safe and warm too. Sheila

Sheila- wouldn't that be nice! It's hard to have contractors and workers around, even if it is to complete a fun project.

Hi Kathy. You have no idea. After two years everything is tiresome. The snow may delay me a week but the end is near. Thank you. Sheila

Sheila getting an electrician out to do a small job is tough these days. I have to have four recessed lights put in my kitchen and have been waiting on the electrician for over two weeks. Hope you get all the work you need completed done and move on to a contractor free life :)

Hello George. You are right. The big jobs go to the ones that are responsive on the little one. This guy didn't come when promised before and didn't call. The guy I generally use is more reliable. This was a sub of my general contractor who won't use him again either. Thank you you for your good wishes. Sheila
