House Projects

After being sick most of last week... I am finally feeling better, and Matt and I have decided to get started again on some House Projects.

Most urgent is our upstairs bathroom off of our Office. The toilet is constantly running. So Matt has been reading up on plumbing... and managed to also find our main water shut-off valve. He shut off the house water today, got parts at Home Depot to replace some parts of the toilet (I know thats not very technical - but hey he is the plumber not me, haha) - and now it works!


My project today was re-painting our bedroom door (it was kind of a 70's style wood door) - and I painted it chocolate brown on the outside & white on the inside and replaced the gold knob with a silver one. I know this project sounds a bit simple... but with Matt preoccupied fixing the bathroom, it took me 4 screwdrivers and 5 trips to Yahoo answers just to get the first doorknob off. =)

... lots more projects to come this fall/winter!

I also finally hung up some pictures in our house from the wedding!
