calm before the storm

This week we are having our utility room and dining room remodeled.

The utility room we are taking out the closet and having the floor taken up. Once we can see the concrete we will decide if we want to keep the bare concrete or paint it. After that we are going to put shelves along the whole wall where the closet was (giving us ALOT more storage space) and then we will move the refrigerator from the kitchen into the utility room - and of course get a new refrigerator for the kitchen.

The dining room we are having the walls redone to remove the molding artwork on the walls.

So this weekend I spent taking everything except the washer and dryer out of the utility room and getting everything out of the dining room. I had enough time this morning to get some "before" shots which I will post with the "after" shots.

removing some of the original shelves in the utility room I found out the original color - a seventies style neon yellow-green. The previous home owners were definitely children of the seventies :)

Oh well I gotta run. Jorge (the man doing the renovations) is here.
