Days 1 & 2 at Lessey St.




We closed on the Lessey St house yesterday, May 1!! Soon after that we dragged our tools into the house and began the work. The biggest thing we did was tear out the old carpets. That was gross but it was great to get our hands on the place.

May 1, Day 1: several people stopped by for a quick house tour or visit: Mindy. Lee, Chris, Josh, Glen, Brett, Ben, Jess and Aaron.
Jess stayed a little while and helped me get a big book case out of the bedroom.

May 2, Day 2: I jumped into the work at about 1PM and was joined by Chris and Ben. Then Aaron and Julian showed up followed by Cheryl and Sarah and Baird. We made a lot more messes today..began some bathroom demo, got about 1/3 of the wallpaper off, took down all the window treatments, discovered old mosaic tiles under the kitchen linoleum and cleaned most of it off and a bunch of other smaller things.

Back at it in the AM. Chris is meeting me there. Ben , Aaron & Brett are taking a UHaul to Boston tomorrow eve to pick up the fridge, claw foot tub and a couch. Who knows what else will transpire???

What a week this is going to be!

Oh yeah...and there was another showing of the Shutesbury house today and an open house is scheduled for Sunday!
