Honestly, I don't
even know what I think anymore, It's just been push, push, push to get everything
done. I spent most of this morning
packing up my entire garage - and keep in mind that my garage has extra storage
space where we keep Christmas decorations, heavy duty kitchen stuff, all of my
tools, and all of our dry goods that we stock up on at Sam's ('cus a home ain't
a home without a 96 pack of toilet paper, enough paper plates to feed all the
troops in Afghanistan, and enough red solo cups to make Toby Keith ashamed).
I'm so tired, in
fact, that I just realized that last paragraph was one long run-on sentence and
I don't care enough to go back and edit it.
ANYWAAAAAAAAYY...
Let's get down to
what you're here for. Here's the latest
picture of the house:
We still have to
stain the cedar around the entrance, swap out the front door, hang a light in
the entranceway, hang the cedar shutters and cedar trellis, and stain both of
them.
Here are two
pictures of our Roman master shower. To
keep anyone from having to Google the term, a Roman shower is a type of
architecturally designed shower stall that does not require a door or curtain. Trust me on this one... DO NOT GOOGLE THE
PHRASE "ROMAN SHOWER" unless you want to be nauseated.
The accent tiles
look a little orange in that picture, but that is the setting sun shining
through the transom window.
Here's another picture of our great room. The mantle still has to be painted or stained (I've forgotten which). You'll also see we have paper and cardboard down on the floor to protect the hardwood which has already been put down.
Here's another
shot of our kitchen. You'll see our
backsplash is up. Under the piece in the
center will be our gas stove and over to the right will be our microwave and
oven set up like a double oven. In the
space above the center backsplash we will have our hood.
And that's about
it. Penny won't let me put too many
pictures up, I've got to save some of the goods for the Big Reveal Party. they are supposed to be done with
construction on June 12 (7 more working days), we do the walkthrough/punch list
on June 13, we do the signing on June 20, a few piddle paddle things for us to
bring over/ install June 21 and 22, and the movers are coming on June 23.. AHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Oh well, it will
all be OK, it will all be OK, it will all be OK. That's what I have to keep telling myself.
Until I put up some more pics, take care.
PS - June 21st is
Penny's birthday. Make sure you wish a
happy one.
PPS - And if you've already looked up "Roman Shower"
on Google... For shame...
