I'm having a lot done. The rugs are being ripped up and laminate planks put down, the house is being painted, ceiling fans, lighting, closet shelving, an entertainment center (not new stuff!), electric stuff, vanities for the bathrooms, part of the basement is being set up for storage (very primitive and basic), and I don't remember what else. I think I also need a new dishwasher. I'll see how much money I have left.

My stepmother sold the condo she and my dad lived in. Since he left me half owner, I got some money and decided to do the work now. I don't expect to ever do it again!

My SIL offered to do the work for me for a really good price. He found a partner and even though it's costing me 2x as much for labor, the work is going faster. I'm paying for supplies of course. He's a really great worker and so is his partner.
I guess if money gets really tight, I'll say "Okay guys, we're finished."

I'm going to put up some pictures.
