Welcome to October 2016

No pictures today but I would like to make some comments on our bath project as if I haven't done that in the past!  At times major projects seem to crawl and then all of a sudden they come together.  Well that is the case of our bath.  There is MUCH work to be done but for the week we are just saying good-bye to here is what was completed this week:
  1. The walls and ceiling were painted
  2. The tub was put in place
  3. The water for the tub and shower was connected
  4. Floor was put in but it is (it still needs to be sanded and finished)
  5. Towel rack was completed and installed
  6. Both the small mirror and the large mirror were framed and are ready to be put up
  7. The vanity and medicine cabinet were installed
  8. Both window frames were primed
  9. All four window panes were primed and painted
In addition to the bath items I was able to scrape, prime and paint some spots on the outside of the house and two storm windows were chalked.  I also was able to get the lawn mowed twice and take the car in for an oil change and an alignment as we put on new tires. As I write this I realize why I am sore and tired.
We have had perfect weather and it sounds like it will go into next week.
Terry is still pretty much stationary but we have hope that recovery will speed up and she will start to feel much better soon.
Next Wednesday the granite people will come to measure so they can cut and install the granite.  I am excited to have the granite in as that means we can hang the two mirrors and put the frame around the small window.  I am waiting to see when the floors can be sanded and finished.  I can not put the baseboards up until after the floors are done.  We will also get the toilet in Tuesday and that will be NICE.
Here it is 7:00 PM and outside is pretty dark, welcome to October.
