Slacker

Sorry for not getting around to posting for awhile. Between selling homes and trying to get this house done, I havn't had much time for sleep let alone updating my blog.

Since my last post we have finished drywalling, priming and painting the interior. We still have touch painting to do after all the molding and finish carpentry is done.

Vladamir and Roman have installed our new oak floors on the main floor and put on a beautiful finish on. I was amazed at how good of a job they did re-finishing the original fir floors on the stairs and the 2nd story...they look great and these guys do great work. I am hiring to do our other house in Alki, which I have been dreading for 4 years.

The tile work in all the bathrooms, laundry room and mud room should be finished today. We went with a classic look in the powder room on the main floor as well as the main upstiars bathroom. The master we decided to go with a more modern look and finally the basment bath, laundry and mud rooms got nice utilitarian tile.

The lawn is also in and looking great! I will post pictures of this later today.

It looks like we are 3 days behind schedule for our original estimate. We were thinking we would be done the 9th, but now it's the 12th.

What else? We had to let go our finish carpenter this week because he called in sick again. It's a long story and unfortunate because we liked him. Dalen (Our Consultant extrodinare) has hired a awesome crew to crank out all the molding, hang the doors, build out our banister, fireplace and hang our kitchen cabinets. They start on tuesday and will be done friday. So I will have to stay out of there way.

I guess that's it for now. More later with some pictures.
