We had a lot of upgrades to do. We worked on paying off the house, and so we had a lot of cheaper do it yourslf stuff over the years....saved, saved, saved, got the kids though college, saved, saved, saved - paid off the house and then save, save, save....and finally had enough to make this our dream someday retirement home. We still have a few more projects, but I need a long break from any more contractors. We just need to do the small bathroom downstairs and my husband is thinking of doing that himself.
