SUN ROOM REMODEL... update




 So here it is January 23, 2026. We got all the windows and door framed in. The windows are in and the rafters are finished. Everybody wanted to deliver this week, but...

We're holding off because a GIANT winter storm is coming in tonight. Rain turning to freezing rain, sleet, thunder sleet, and snow. If that's not enough it will be below freezing from Friday evening until Tuesday afternoon. So approximately 90 hours. 



Our hope is well be able to work a few hours next week and get the siding on and the trusses up and covered.



On a happy note both granddaughters travel volleyball teams won Championship this last weekend. 

I'm continuing my Bible studies. I love learning about God's word.

REMODEL update...



Sold door or one with a window? Trying to decide. This will be in the sunroof addition.




Replaces ALL the wood under the vinyl. 










Repainted the house. I LOVE IT! Clean and pretty. The brick was so busy, I never realized there's a pattern in the brick work.



 New porch light.




Removed the exterior fireplace.




Enlarged the patio.






Had half of the pecan tree cut so no limbs will be over the house anymore. 





Started building the sunroof.

built a fence to hide the trash cans.




Pixie cut


 

Okay, so this time I went realllllyyy short. Kenneth said "it will grow back". Trying to decide if I like it this short. 

It is SUPER easy, just wash and go. 

UPDATE...

I cannot handle a cut sooo short that my neck has to be shaved. I broke out in a rash and my neck was itchy for 10 days.

Changes...

 




                                                    

                                            You been waiting long?

So... this happened...

 always something when you start tearing into a 53 year old house.

Our house was built in 1972. We are the 2nd owners. so was expecting some wood rot behind the vinyl.




the chimney is being torn down to, to the roof line.
its in bad shape and what we have inside are ventless propane logs.




south end is not too bad. but all fascia and soffits on back will have to be replaced.  The tear down continues.

Got the dback patio awning off in 3 pieces.



Looks different.

at least its not supposed to rain this week.
