House Reno

Again.

This time is the 2nd floor.

Hired someone to do it this time cos we can’t do it ourselves this time – need to level the subfloor.  There are a few little things that need fixing as well.

Trying to get this done before the arrival of #2.  Took this chance to do it since 小J needs to switch room anyway.

My mom is not impressed by the fact that we are doing reno while #2 is still brewing. Pure superstitious-ness. She said that we should wait till #2 is out. But honestly, that causes more practical problem. We kinda had that happen when 小J was out when we decided that we need to change the main floor flooring before 小J became mobile and hurt himself over the popped nails. I ended up turning into 遊牧民族, taking 小J out of the house everyday to avoid the dust and noise, while 小J needs to nap somewhere in the library and places like that. And because we were out, 變相小J瞓時我都無得瞓. 攰爆.

We would like to get it done end of summer but unfortunately, the contractor delayed the start date a few times and it’s finally getting started this week. If we didn’t ask again and again abt the possibility of getting it done in September, the contractor was going to do it in the beginning of Oct… Was a bit annoyed by how he drags on and on over the start date.

In the rush to clear up the 2nd floor, it was a good time to toss some useless stuff away. One of the stuff that got into the ‘give away’ box is a digital photo frame that I gave 詹占 as an xmas present one year… It was something that got looked at every time we went to stores like Future Shop and stuff. So I bought one. But then we have only used it less than 5 times all these years. Most of the time, it sits in its original box. 詹占毫不留情的說要 get rid of it. I wonder if he rmbs how the frame came into existence. Oh well… it indeed is useless to us tho so it’s good that someone is 狠心 ar.

Sleeping in the basement these days, with 小J sleeping down there, too. It’s kinda fun. Almost feel like we are in a hotel. Heh.

Hopefully, the reno will be done on time. We still need to move everything back up (poor 詹占 had to do all the heavy lifting all by himself, with the ‘help’ of 小J) and to buy 小J a new bunk.

And hopefully, our new floor will not be squeaky no more, which will help to sleep train #2. Fingers crossed.
