so much to do!

I am done work! wow, it is such a nice feeling :)
We got the keys to the place on monday night... oh man, there is a lot of stuff that needs to be done... more then we remembered. The whole place needs to be painted.. which is going to cost us about $1300. (double what we were expecting).

We need to still clean EVERYWHERE! the people who lived there before were DISCUSTING! There is tons of greese all over the kitchen.. sooo nasty.. wont come off.

We need to get an electrition in to fix some of our outlets (we knew that from the house inspection) and to see how much it would cost to put lights in our bedrooms...

We need to get new light fixtures, because I really do not like the ones that are there... lol

The blinds are pretty gross, but I will live with most of them until we can afford the nice fake wood ones I want. (Except the kitchen ones are full of greese... so they will be replaced right away with some cheap ones)

Our ensuite bathroom doesnt have a door on it... it has a curtain... and the rod is so short that Mike would hit his face if he didnt duck down... (We have the door that belongs there, so we just need to do a little switching around.)

The laundry room and our walk in closet have these accordian door things, from like the 80s or something... those I would like to replace with regular closet type doors.
We are thinking of expanding our laundry room area... I have no idea how much work it is.. not to much i think just need new doors and then shelving for inside.

The carpets need to be cleaned, but we are waiting until after we move everything in.. (carpet is just on the stairs and upstairs hallway..)

omg, i dont even know if that is everything or not! haha I HOPE SO!!! We will be so broke after!

OH YES.. i forgot.. our roof top patio door lock was broken, so i decided i would buy a new door handle with a lock, and do it myself.. HAHA. Well I got half way through it and Mike got there and said I was doing something wrong.. so he thought he fixed it... WELL nope,he ended up getting the door totaly jammed shut.. SO my dad had to come fix it.. and once he got it all fixed and on.. he laughed at me... because I bought the bathroom/bedroom door handle.. the kind that doesnt have a key... so someone could just use ANYTHING to open it.. OMG! well anyways, that will be fixed tomorrow... haha!
