The tile guy has just about completed the master bath shower, so he can soon start on the rest of the floors.
The electricians installed and hooked up virtually all the remaining lights today. WOW! We can give you a light show when you arrive, if we can figure out what switches control which lights!
The cabinet guy brought the rest of the kitchen stuff, plus a custom made bookcase.
What remains:
- putting finish on the stair treads, the saloon floor, and a couple miscellaneous doors...and sealing the rock around the fireplaces.
- installing the potbelly stove in the kitchen and the gas stove in master bedroom
- installing toilets, dog tub, sinks, shower doors
- installing the major appliances
- finishing the remaining floors (tile, carpet and vinyl)
- installing countertops in the sink and master bath
It sounds like a lot, but if they work like they did today, it could be accomplished in a matter of days. We'll be moving some preliminary furniture in this week.
Vacation is about over. Back to mirrors (ugh!), a varied and clean wardrobe, long showers, makeup and bras for me (!) , major big-time housecleaning, doing laundry every couple days instead of once a week at the local laundromat, and entertaining. We are plain folk about to move into a grand house. I hope we can live up to it!
By the way, it's been snowing big, wet, beautiful flakes for 24 hours and WE DON'T REALLY CARE!!!!
