    Love the toile paper!
  4. Hi Ladies, don't know if I've mentioned this before but there is a product called "Migra Spray" you can get it over the counter. If I can take it at the first warning of a migraine it is helpful and doesn't have so many side effects as the prescription stuff.
  5. First Construction injury! I was nipping the last few briks for the final corner of the foundation and nipped the middle of my palm! OW OW OW! Lots of "magic words" Stacey. At least I didn't get any blood on the house.

    Progress.

    So much progress in just a few short weeks. I'm really starting to feel good about this!
  7. Sounds like a big project. I agree with Stacey, it can only get better from here. Please post lots of pictures!
  8. I'm going to give it another go tonight, i'll let you know how I make out.
  9. Does it look anything like my Hofco Southern Dynasty? -Angela
  10. I haven't tried that yet but I will! Thanks for the idea Kathie.
  11. ok, so I am trying to knock out the walls of my house for easier working. I think that some type of wood glue was used to affix them into the house, no nails. I tried heating with the hair dryer and then gently tapping with my hammer but not even a budge occurred. Any suggestions? Help would be much appreciated!

  14. Ok everybody, I feel as though the outside is shaping up nicely. And maybe this means I can move to the interior. I've been working on removing the wallpaper backing. It's tedious work and no fun! So my question is... Where do I start next? Do you usually work one room at a time? Or all walls floors and molding throughout the entire house? Hmmm. Not sure what to jump into next. Help please!!!!
  15. I'm reading this thinking how frustrated my dad must have been at times when putting my house together. I keep thinking I want to do a build but it seems daunting. A constructed house from Craig's list to rehab is probably the way to go for me. I admire your perseverance. Hang in there!
  16. Beautiful homes. I wish I could live in one if those! I guess that's what our mini's are for, living vicariously.
  17. Welcome Buffy! You are in the right place for sure. Lots of knowledgeable people with the same addiction. I just joined recently myself. You're gonna' love it here!
