BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I am looking at replacing a few windows on one side of the house. They are really bad double-hungs. We also need to get rid of the crappy siding but I don't know if that will be this year or next. When I replace the siding I would like to also increase the R value so that could end up being a big project before its all done.
I need to put a man door in the garage. New house without one. It sucks
I need to replace some interior doors
Need to finish putting rock and trim under the deck
Might install a raised garden bed for strawberries and raspberries. Damn developer scrapped most of the black soil and hauled it away. Pisses me off.
Fire pit
More, I'm sure...

Just making my list sounds like work...... Too many things to count
Add on to the deck in the back. Add trim and repaint most of the inside of the house. Probably new carpet too. We bought this place three summers ago and really wanted to redo every room in the house. There is nothing really wrong with any of the finishes, everything was new when we bought it. It's just all very vanilla everywhere. I've been putting off the work too long. Time to get at it.
We will be putting up new trim and painting 2 bedrooms, cleaning and resealing a concrete patio and possibly rebuilding our deck.

Yes they do. This is why my buddy who lives in the same neighborhood and I decided to run for President and Vice President and get a couple of like minded people to also get on the board (stacking the board
). Now, no foolish rules and people getting in other peoples business just to be jerks. So far so good.We have plenty of projects.
-Building new bbq patio and fire pit out of reclaimed brick. Already got the yard dug up.
-Get veggie gardens going
-Restain the deck
-Tear down old shed and have new one put up.
-Put in new garage door and get garage in order
-Redo family room. We have an odd small bedroom that cuts up the family room so we are tearing it out for more space and putting in new floors.
-House needs painted, but might have to wait another year.

Strong work! I like your style. I should think of doing this in my HOAYes they do. This is why my buddy who lives in the same neighborhood and I decided to run for President and Vice President and get a couple of like minded people to also get on the board (stacking the board
