First Fix

The refrigerator was way ugly. One of the reasons was the upside down freezer handle. The rest of the reason was inherent ugliness. The first part I could do something about.

(Quick question for the old owner: How do you live in a house six years and not fix this?)

Total Cost: $0
Total Time: < 5 min.

After

First Mod

I've got schemes for the kitchen. These schemes include stainless everything. The non-stainless old school refridgerator is headed to the garage. Planning ahead for that, my first mod is a bottle opener right next to a primo fridge spot in the garage.

Total cost: $0 (part of welcome package from real estate agent)
Time: < 1 minute

Moved In

The starting point is after I moved all my stuff in. I went from a one bedroom apartment to a three bedroom house. So I've got 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a living room and a dining room that need something done.

First I had to get there



The Jeep looks mean up there



What Boxes?



This Don't Mean You


Tubbin


Stairway to Heaven


Nice View


Live pron!



the kitchen



The Family Room



Family Room Again



Gotta do something with this



Do something with me too



The actual flowers are house warming from my mom. The curtain flowers gotta go.



Gotta scheme a scheme for each of the bathrooms.

The Reason

I modded my Jeep and I love the result.

Witness it:















My only regret was that I didn't take before and after pics. I'm not making the same mistake with my house. That's why this.

For the Jeep I made up for my mistake by knowing a girl who drove the stock version of my Jeep.

'Can you move your Jeep out to the middle so I can park next to it and take pictures?'
'You're gonna make my Jeep look bad aren't you?'

Luckily she was cool with it. It'd be a lot harder to find somebody with the stock version of my house.
