Our previous experience with minor remodeling on three earlier houses somehow led us to believe that we could handle this one. We spent 8 months in a rental house while gutting the upper level and partially finishing the main level. Ever since, we've endured a never-ending stream of weekend projects and wasted vacation days - all in hopes of someday ending up with a completely restored bungalow.
