Last year I spent around $6500 in improvements to the house. I built a 6 foot fence around the back yard, a deck, and paved the driveway. This year I plan to spend the same and complete the improvements. I've already gotten started by replacing the crappy old shed in the backyard with missing doors with a much nicer and larger shed. I've also got central AC scheduled to be installed in a couple weeks. Next will be dirt to level out my backyard, sod, finish the "games room" in the basement, changes to my entranceway, "wainscoting" down my main hallway, and new trim around every room upstairs. The trim I currently have is the cheapest kind you can get and is ugly. After I'm finished these reno's I hope to not do any more changes to this house. I want to feel relaxed and not like there's always a project to do in addition to the computer programming projects I should be doing. 2006 is the year to get things done.
The renovations have begun
