Do it yourself

Well its been almost a week and will probably be another week before I get hot water again. I now have a stock pot on the stove that I call "the water heater". Beings I want the water heater relocated (along w/ the washer and dryer). All currently in the kitchen; to the other side of the wall between the kitchen and garage. I'm referring to this project as the "utility room bump-out". THIS time, I'm NOT "doing it myself" I'm having it done for me. But, I have scaled drawings, both plans, as well as elevations, that I drew up. I love being able to go appliance shopping (water heater, washer, dryer, dish washer, etc) and get dimensions, specs, and price on the internet when drawing up plans and sketches of things I want to do. BTW; I finished the 2nd half of the back porch deck this afternoon! I lack a board at both ends of the porch (as thresholds) and I'm done! My Thanksgiving project continues to be; enclosing the porch (at least the North wall) w/ french doors, unless it gets pre-empted by something more needy. That means I have to finish 1 last coat of paint on the 3rd french door before then. AND, get Mother Nature to cooperate.
