When it finally starts, it goes fast! Not all cheering, because as soon as they come and measure for the counters on Thursday, we have one week to paint the entire ceiling. I don’t know why we agreed to do that. I hate painting ceilings. My hair hates painting ceilings.
Then the counters come in one week before the Christmas holiday and then the contractor returns to connect all the appliances and our plumbing.
Then we do the tile and we do the open shelving. And build out the pantry wall and cabinets. And caulk, so much caulk. And wall painting. And all of the trim work and baseboards. And over sink lighting.
Our punch list is long and growing. But we’ll have running water, so that’s something to look forward to…in 10 days.
