Yeah, starting a couple of years ago, I had taken an outdoor patio down and added another 475' to the house in back.

If you can imagine, I have a galley kitchen (meaning rectangular with cabinets on both sides.

The kitchen runs into the dining room area and I built right out the door from the dining room another 35-40'.

If you leave the new room by way of one of two new French doors that I put in, there is a new bricked covered patio with steps that I built.

I had previously converted the attached garage to a grand room, and there was another 6 feet added to that. Then a new garage built in front of that.

Then because that room was hot, I ran a whole new roof across the whole back end of the house including the new room and patio.
This gave me a 10' cathedral ceiling with a 3'x 5' skylight above.

I put hunter fans in every room and outdoors in the covered patio.
The covered patio has man made material nailed into the inside roof underneath that looks like textured wood which I then painted a nice color I liked that is an earth-tone.

I have lots of work left.
Already changed all the windows in the house.
Redid all the plumbing.
Restuccoed the home.
Painted the home.
Fully redid one bathroom already as well.
Replaced all the vents in the house, the heater and added a 4 ton central air unit. (Though I do well in the whole house with this one in wall AC)

YAWN!

Going to go, I have to add 1/4 inch raise to open studs in the future pantry wall, then I close it.

I was at Lowes and Home Depot.
I'm putting in 6 x 3' x 16" shelves in a corner.

On the wall 6 x 5' x 10" with brackets.
The other two walls are going to be a bunch of little can type shelves.
And the door to the pantry I found on sale is frosted glass with etchings of bread and fruit with the word PANTRY on it.

Too much!
