We've got 2 projects we're about to undertake. Replacing our absurdly noisy bathroom fan. Not to jinx it, but that should be straight forward. Buy a new one, make sure the duct sizes match, some screws some wires, voila.

Next up will be a complete rebuild of our bedroom closet. Right now we have one 9+ ft long rod and shelf. Like everything else the previous owners did, it's half-assed. The shelf supports they were NOT made to handle the weight of all of our clothes + stroage boxes across a 9ft span. The need to replace it became urgent when we tried to put a box back up this weekend and it slid right off of the sagging shelf.

So we're going to rip it out. In its place will be multiple heights of hanging rods, a couple shelves, and space for some sort of shelving or cubbies or something tbd. And we'll be adding lighting.

We'll also be getting rid of the absurd doors on there. 8ft. x 4ft. x 2in thick solid wood sliding monsters. Hanging from a track that barely supports their weight. They're a bitch to slide and a bigger bitch to re-set onto the track when they fall off due to the track being bent from their weight. They also prevent us from decent access to the middle area of the closet.

If we simply take them off and make them go away, it'll be an improvement. Eventually I'd like to get a set of 3 light weight doors on there, but that will be phase 2.

If it goes well, we'll move on to the closet in the guest room. Gotta get some use out of the circular saw I just bought for the project
