Things are going a bit slowly at the moment, though there has been progress made. The fence and gates are back up, and most (but not all) of the side yard grading and walls are complete. We're waiting on some inspection on the large retaining wall before we can polish off the work back there, and in front.<\/p>\n

Moving back into the kitchen is suffering from the 80-20 rule: the last 20% is taking 80% of the time (since it's the least necessary). That's because of needing to sequence some stuff along with work in the basement.<\/p>\n

1. Figure out what's going where in the basement — from the boxes stacked there, and from space upstairs that is occupied by stuff that really could go into the basement.
2. Install basement cabinets (former kitchen cabinets)
3. Move shelving into basement annex.
4. Load stuff into 2 and 3 that need to be based on 1.
5. Move other stuff around between living room, dining room, kitchen, hallway storage, and basement.
5.5 Finish getting remaining kitchen stuff into the kitchen.
6. Get dining room (staging area for all the above) and living room (storage area for a bunch of stuff, still) into operational shape.
7. In the garage, now that the cabinets are moved out (see 2), figure out what to do with the scrap lumber, etc. so that we can actually park in the garage again (a novel idea, wot?)<\/p>\n

Good thing I have time on my hands soon …<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
