Our laundry room upstairs is the greatest thing because we never have to haul laundry up and down the stairs and I never have to go into the basement like we did at Bay Street. Of course this doesn't mean that I do my laundry any more frequently (because I hate folding and hanging up clothes). We also can't really get into the laundry room. Our washer and dryer unit is placed smack-dab in the middle of the laundry room which leaves no room for cleaning products, baskets or a utility tub (which will be our next project... that and the dishwasher... which will be a HUGE project).
So we finally decided to do something about it. Well, I decided. Nick and his dad did the rest. I did pay for it though, so I think that is an adequate enough contribution. After two trips to Menards (man, did I miss that place!) and a few hours we realized WHY the old owners never moved the laundry machine where it should have been... and that reason was that it was a pain in the butt. We managed to re-vent everything and move it from the middle of the room, but it didn't quite get to go against the wall and is now at a 45 degree angle. The duct work needed to be longer so for now we can at least WALK into the room and use the shelves that were hidden behind the washer/dryer when it was in the middle of the room. The vent out the window is also a lot cleaner looking. We will finish the project later after speech is done.
More will come. Maybe even from Nick since he technically did the project. As well as pictures... soon. Maybe. If I can get my camera to work. Or find the battery. I promise. Really.
