My house has been a work in progress for the last 18 years.
I still don't have a finished floor in my living room, dining room, or kitchen... I plan on finishing that when I finish my basement. Then I'll move everything down there and use that as my living area, and be able to actually clean out and finish the floors up here.
I've lived in this house for the last 18 years with nothing but a plywood floor and a few throw rugs. (The bedrooms have finished oak floors, and so with the living room and dining room when they are done. Kitchen is going with a linoleum floor cause it's easy). Once I do all this I'm gonna get a new stove. It is broken, I just haven't bothered buying a new one cause I don't want to haul out the old one, bring in the new one, then later this year have to haul the new one back out to finish the flooring correctly and bring it back in.
The joys of moving into an unfinished home...
