~ Refinish hardwood floors
~ Ceramic tile in kitchen & entryway
~ New tub/shower
~ new drapes
~ dishwasher
and if there was any left over I think maybe a stripper pole and stage for one of the living rooms.

I have the new hardwood flooring that I need to put down in the kitchen & dining room, but can't do it until after we replace the cabinets & countertops. So I'd buy those & install them myself. As much as I'd love granite tops, they wouldn't fit the feeling of our house at all so I'd have to consider something more country casual.
We still need some new windows installed before I finish replacing the siding with new cedar, but right now it's the kitchen that's making us nuts.

Since I just sold mine, I'd use it to either pay for the movers to the new house, or toward the downpayment on the new house. That counts, right?

Well, okay, so maybe I cheated. If I had not just sold my house ... new countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms and a new tub/shower surround thing.

Soundproof our bedroom so we can play with our whips and paddles without the neighbors hearing or grossing out the kid.

A concrete turnaround and reserved guest parking space for the pizza delivery man.

............. Or do you think $5k is enough to remodel the kitchen? I want to take out all the old appliances and install vending machines.

For $5K I'd fly a number of Pixies to Darwin to improve the look of my place.
