haven’t got the time to sit down and update on the house reno progress.
we were glad to have greg and gin coming over to help us painting on saturday. with more hands on the job, it was less painful especially with painting, touching up, cleaning, moving stuffs around the house etc. thanks buddy!
also, my long-awaited home theatre system has finally arrived! but alas, there seem to be missing hdmi cable that was promised to be free. sheesh. quite pissed with the way courts staff handled my purchase.
on sunday, my parents came over to help out around the house as well.
over the weekend, we managed to paint the kitchen and master bedroom as well as cleaning up some of the kitchen sink area and mending the toilet sinks.
more things to look out for this week as there will be installation of cornice, speaker wire routing and hang up the fans on tuesday and kitchen cabinet installation, bi-fold toilet doors and fixing up the remaining of the switches.
another item striked out. after the long awaited convocation, i’m finally proud to be the first graduate in my family. fulfilled my dad’s wishes at last.
apart from that, came home to a huge mess after day 2 of lighting and rewiring works. today was even more messy due to more drillings in the kitchen and living.
it will continue again the next day, with hopes that the works could finish before I can start painting. *pray*
the end of first day for lighting/electrical wiring works turns out well, except that the house was full of dust from the drillings.
new lights were fixed for the study room and master bedroom. fan sockets are ready and a new aircon wiring was laid due to the previous wire being too old and short. another new wiring was laid for our built-in steamer oven, thus the current switchbox gotta be replaced.
for today, according to uncle steven, we’ll be getting our rubbish chute changed and master bedroom aircon blower shifted.
and yea, will be going for my graduation ceremony tonight! *excited*
pretty tough week.
EDIT: seems like the lighting and wiring works can’t finish on time. might even need to extend till tomorrow or monday.
shucks, my plans to paint over the weekend jus blown away.
yesterday, uncle steven brought his carpenter friend, lek, to measure up the kitchen cabinet, wardrobes etc.
today, he will be coming over to my place to start work on the electrical wiring, lighting and fans! *excited*
yea was kinda excited until i can’t sleep well. shall post some pics when i can..
another weekend went by. we had uncle steven to come over on saturday and finalise on the lighting, fans etc. after he’s done, we went back jb to buy some paint, brushes and some other stuffs for the house.
this morning, uncle steven called and we confirmed some details and work will start on wednesday! fixes for the lights and rewiring, relocation of switches etc will take 2 days to complete. after which, this weekend will be the time to paint the house!
