First step was cleaning out his "man room". I know it sounds so mean to make my husband give up is "man room" but don't worry we have a bedroom upstairs that he could turn into his own room if he really wanted. So here are some pictures of what it looked like before hand.
You might be able to see in one of these pictures that there are 18 computers cluttering the shelves! 18!! I don't think even half of them work. I believe though Cray has some good ideas for fixing up the computers and giving them to GoodWill.
There was also a weight bench in the garage but we moved it before I remembered to take some pictures. So you can imagine that it was a big project and a lot of hard work but I'm happy to say we have the room cleaned out and the computers at lest organized so he can start fixing and getting rid of them. Here are some after pictures.
So hopefully this weekend we will be taking down the garage door and installing windows that his dad has graciously given us from the shop. The shelves will go into the laundry room so I'll have a place to fold clothes once Cray figures out what he is going to do with all those computers. Then we will need to finish up the wiring that the previous owners started, lay down the carpet that is in the shed (from the previous owners), and paint the walls (with the paint the old owners left as well). Not sure why they left so much brand new stuff at the house but I wasn't going to ask; I'm very happy that we get to complete such a large project at such little cost.
Hopefully in June we will be knocking down the wall that divides the living room and garage and put in sliding doors so people don't have to walk through the laundry room to get to the den. I'll continue to post pictures as we get closer and closer to our ultimate goal.
