House Update

on Thursday, July 13, 2006

Sorry no real pictures right now.
A lot has happened with the house here lately and I haven't had time to post any pictures. We have countertops in for the kitchen, masterbathroom, and powderroom. (the Jack and Jill bathroom doesn't yet) Lance has been working really hard to get the sinks plumbed and working plus he has finished the tiling of the master shower. It's beautiful and I really need to get some pictures up. We will be grouting the shower tile this weekend. The Jack and Jill bathroom wall tile isn't complete, I'd say it's about halfway done - then the floor and walls need to be grouted. The toilet has been set for the powderroom. One weird thing that has happened is that the toilet that we bought for the masterbathroom is too big - it's for a 12" rough in and we have a 10" rough in - if you know what that means. It took a lot of explaining for me to understand; but of course the husband just said "our toilet doesn't fit" and I kept asking why and he would just say "it goes into the wall." WTH?! So I think we have to get a special fitting - an offset flange - to correct this problem and we can still use the nice clearance unreturnable toilet that we already have. :)
Tomorrow we get our appliances!!! Yeah!!! They should all be installed by the end of this weekend! I will have a full functioning kitchen!!!!! That will be a first since November 2003!!!!!!!! No lie! And we will be picking out carpet this weekend or next week. Then guess what. Yep we will move in. So although I don't have an exact move in day, per say, we will move in after these things are accomplished. :) I'm happy! So is Lexa - she's kicking with delight right now!
