[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am definitely routing for you. I cannot imagine living in a home that is falling apart, a neighborhood eyesore (peeling garage, bulging gutters,) and an embarrassment.

At the least, I would get price on new windows, garage doors, gutters to get the house in line with neighborhood, energy efficient, and safety. If you cannot open some windows and there is a fire how would your dc get out?

Next, I’d do do the kitchen as you spend all your time in there. You will likely be in your home another 20 yrs if your dc are still in elementary. Do it now.

Lastly, the bathrooms.

On your own or one room at a time by a handyman you can paint, then declutter.

I am not artistic, musical, athletic, or even a great cook but I am very organized, clean, and have an eye for color/ harmony so the big ticket things ( windows, kitchen, bathrooms need to be outsourced) but I have found you can do the interior without spending a fortune.

I really hope you can get your spouse on board. Wishing you the best!
