Day 18 : Renovation

Almost there.....

What you guys think of the wall?

Both me & J have different opinion about this wall.... He called it "Barney Wall"

Day 10 : Renovation

Our house coming to shape....
Happy with was done so far.

The toilet almost done...
The sliding door at master bedroom installed...
The "12ft x 11ft" wardrobe installed...
The kitchen cabinets installed.., minus its granite's top.

After work.., we went and sit at the balcony.., while waiting for the contractors to finish their work..
The feeling was so nice. Satisfied and happy and felt blessed.

A good day indeed.

Day 7 & 8 : Renovation

The toilet start taking shape., hence we went and buy boxes of tiles.

It was not an easy task. There were lots of options., and us having different ideas doesn't help too. After few trips to the SAME tiles shop, we finally decided and bought a total of 16 boxes of tiles!

And today, they finally hacked the master bedroom.., prepping it for sliding door installation.

Let's hope they install the sliding door soon. Else we have a super big hole at the home.

Day 6 : Renovation

The auto gate came with the house, and got the contractor to install it today.

But I don't really feel safe with it though.

Hmmmmm.......

Bicycle-Toilet

I sooooooooo want this for my toilet.... but wonder if its practical.

But its nice, right? :)

Happy Valentine's Day

Our dinner for tonight...

Bon Appetite...!

Day 4 : Renovation

There is a BIG HOLE at my house today. 

Yeah, that is my extended toilet in the making.

Good Morning

The view I will miss.....
Especially the breeze.....

Day 2 : Renovation

Renovation officially starts today.
Door being whacked down and all work starting.... They had even placed the aircond's pipe!
And guess what.., its second day and budget had been BURST..!!!
Decided to do sliding door for master bedroom, which cost many more monies.....
Had finally decided on the kitchen cabinets contractor too.
So, more a less everything had finalized. Pheew.....

Day 1 : Renovation (still planning...)

The shocked I got when I went to check before passing the key to Contractor.
The tampered glass in the toilet shattered!
WTF! How could this even happened....???? Imagine it shattered when one of us was showering????
And guess what... I called the guy in charge of defects rectification.., and apparently, ours is the 4th house that had this issue!
And yet they doing nothing about it????? Isn't it consider hazard???
Anyway, on brighter side.., luckily this happened BEFORE I start my renovation. Else., they sure blame us!

Day - 1 : Renovation Planning

In two more days and the renovation shall be officially starting.... Keeping fingers crossed that all shall goes as planned.

Last week had been crazy.., especially the last few days.

We had met at least 4 kitchen contractors.... 2 wet-works contractors.... 1 grill contractors....

And don't ask me how many electrical shops had we visited...... I am tired even before the renovation starts.

And... me & J had lots of "discussion" sessions..... on what to do and agree on it.... and how much to budget for the renovation.....

I dare not look into the amount we needed to spend before we can move in...... I can now totally understand when CY told me that she felt so poor after buying + renovating her house....

Though I have J to share the burden with.... I still feel SO POOR!

I guess, what need to be renovated..., need to be done... so, might as well enjoy the moment.., by that, I mean, enjoy the craziness...

Happy Chap Goh Meh!

I been very busy since the Chinese New Year started.
