We finally did it! Now we are committed. Funny. We took out that accent wall in our living room. Today someone is coming to pick up the fireplace and the chimney. I always say if it’s free someone will take it. So far it has been true for us.
It was so much work! I knew the fireplace was going to be heavy just not that heavy. We also found out that whoever put the fire place in did it incorrectly. Because they did not put enough support for the roof. It’s a miracle that the house is intact right there. Like usual when the previous owners put the accent wall in it was held together by a billion nails. Apparently they owned a nail store. We know they did it because when we took down the ramp that was in the garage it was held together by a billion nails as well. Everything they did to this house is held to together by so many nails!
We for the just this week we have tarp wall. Funny! It’s strange to hear crickets in the living room.
We also got a new oven. Remember Jeff started a fire in our oven and it was ruined? Yeah we finally got a new one. We debated on getting a used one to a new one. We have never had a new one before. So we needed to get stuff for our bathroom so we decided on new. It’s a convection oven. That means things cook faster. It does! It’s so cool and we like the look of it.
Bad part. I had to help get it off the truck. I am not an upper body strength person. It was so heavy even with both of us carrying it. I was really sore on Sunday.
