Getting My Ducts in a Row

Moved to make room for stove
Basement return
No more register in the middle of the living room
Relocated main floor air return
Air return for upstairs

This duct has got to go
Duct all gone
The furnace guy also relocated a couple registers, moved a duct and added air returns to the 2nd floor and basement.  Now I have heat in the house but holes in the floor.

Bye Bye Tiles, Hello Back Pain

The cat is supervising my work
My home = piles of rubble

The old kitchen will be the new living area and those gross white tiles just won't do.  Using a lot of muscle power, a shovel, crowbar and sledge hammer, I lifted up all the tiles.  They were sitting on an inch of adhesive and metal lathe.  Fortunately, like most things at this house, they were not installed securely but they were heavy!
