Goal #7 Paint Exterior of House - 10% Complete

To Do:
To Do:
- Build deck
- Replace siding
- Paint new siding Gray
Goal #8 Start Bathroom - 1% Complete
If you go back to my original 2013 Home Goals, it does say start the bathroom which I have. So I guess I did accomplish that. I have only removed the wallpaper on 90 percent of one wall. You can see above that I was testing out chalkboard paint for in here. I ultimately decided against it. The original post mentions at least replacing the sink and taking out the glass doors. I haven't got to those things yet. I am way ahead of schedule on the projects so I may be able to get to those things.
To Do:
- Finish removing wallpaper
- Paint ceiling and walls
- Add board and batten to walls
- Replace floor
- Take shower doors off and replace with shower curtain
- Replace sink
- Take out above the toilet cabinetry for floating shelves
- Replace mirror
- Replace vanity light and overhead light
I am really pleased with how much I have got done. I have 5 months to finish the living room/dining room, make some progress in the bathroom and replace the siding on the front of the house. I hope that I can do it.
Can you believe I got most of my goals completed already? Did you set home goals and how is your list going?
