Ha, yea as a DIY homeowner I tend to start a remodel and once it gets to a usable state I lose interest. My basement bathroom with no trim and office with no trim proves this.

Omg I don’t remember posting this..

My stairs were sanded down years ago, never got around to re-coating them (tho that’s partially because 3 corner treads need to be replaced and I just don’t want to do it)

My windows were replaced a decade back and still don’t have interior trim.

I put in hardwood floor, but never put new baseboards in.

I installed a furnace and new ductwork, but never fixed the run to the front room (it was ripped out a long time ago, and needs a new flex line, but I’ll have to take out part of the living room ceiling to install it I think..)

The list just keeps going and going.. someday I’ll finish at least a few of these things!
