Wow, things have been busy. crazy busy. So this will be a short update to get you caught up on all the exciting happenings here.
First- my dream of a white farmhouse has come to fruition. In just a few days, the exterior of the house was transformed with white paint and dark gray trim. Reaching a decision on which “white” to use took some doing, but in the end, I am very happy with the color.
Also, on the exterior, the pool was gunnited on Friday, so it’s starting to take shape. They are installing the tile today, but the crew showed up with the wrong color tile- thankful my husband was on site to catch it!
On the interior, things are also rockin’! The tile crew started last week on the shower tile. Hopefully, they will be finishing up this week with both bathrooms and laundry room tile. The doors, trim and texture are all finished, so they are prepping for a busy week of interior painting, wood flooring and cabinets, which will be delivered tomorrow. New garage door comes on Thursday.
THE BEAMS ARE FINISHED! well, at least the bulk of them. I still have a little bit of finish work in the corners, which will have to be hand sanded, but they are almost there.
I’m not sure how we got so lucky on the weather these last few weeks- it held out long enough for them to paint and work on the pool. Now with the upcoming storm, they’ll be able to concentrate on the inside. As for the deadline, it’s technically only FOUR days away. Of course, we will not make it. But I think we are close. I’m trying to be positive and hoping for two more weeks, but it maybe be 3, or even 4, depending. After this week, they will have the finish electrical and plumbing fixtures, the water/hvac/and electrical systems to hook up, and the countertops to install.
We are beyond excited, and beyond ready to get out of the fifth wheel. I’ll try to keep posting more frequently as we race to the finish line!
