Deadlines? what are deadlines, really, but moving targets- approximations- goals, right?! Our official deadline for completion was last Thursday, but a bit more paperwork and money, of course, buys us a 2 month extension. I HOPE we will not need all that time, but it’s there. I’m not sure how much more of trailer living any of the family can take. The closer we are on the house, the harder it is in the confined space. And we are close- painfully so!
Here’s the progress from last week:
• Cabinets delivered and hung
• Tile guys were there all week completing the shower and floor tile for bathrooms and laundry. They are almost done- grouting today.
• Interior trim and some walls have been painted
• New garage door is on
• The ceiling and kitchen beam were repaired and patched
• We painted the living/kitchen tongue-and-groove ceiling (Thank you- Jill, April, Annette and Steve!)
• Stained the wood interior french doors for the office and laundry room
• Re-stained the front porch columns to gray (we thought they were a little too yellow agains the white)
• Ordered carpet and scheduled for next week (bedrooms)
• Some furniture was delivered- yay!!
What’s left to do? Wood floors, finish interior paint, lighting and electrical finish work, plumbing fixtures, countertops (ordering today). Just a couple minor things, right?! Stay tuned!
