OT Hooray the right cabinets are installed!
Today it was 103. I drove up to the new house and VIOLA! they were
installing the correct cabinets. The electricians were there too and all the outlets, switches, under cabinet lights and recessed lighting was going in. The bathroom fixtures were waiting too. It was brutal in the house with very little breeze. The landscaping looks great and the sprinkle system is up and running thanks to an extension cord. I was glad I was there because I caught some things that would only have to be redone later. I mean, how can you miss a giant knothole in the crown moulding? Reluctantly they redid it. I showed the electricians some of the outlets they missed and the wiring for the light in the back closet. They seemed to appreciate my input so they wouldn't have to come back. Tomorrow the granite countertops will be installed in the kitchen and baths. Hopefully the tilework will begin again on Monday. The walls in the house look like someone was playing dodgeball. The whole inside has to be repainted. We are so close yet so far! I came home and took a dip in the pool. The water is so warm it felt like a bathtub. After a cool shower and a bottle of water I felt much better. Only a few more boxes to pack. 7 days to go. Thanks for listening.

Excited and terrified at the same time! Not sleeping through the night. I
guess the brain doesn't sleep. Today the granite goes in! More photos later on. Hugs to all, Linda |

Such fun to "walk" through your new house with you Linda :-) I really,
really like the master bath tile and border.

Thank you. I am so happy to be able to share the progress. The internet is
such a great tool. My parents live in NY and I can keep them up to date on all the progress. More photos tomorrow as the countertops go in today. Linda |

Lots of fun, but so much work before (packing, moving and then moving again)
and after, maybe the fun part decorating. Linda |

Can;t wait to get in there myself. I already know that I will need to have
upper cabinets installed. My stash seems to have multiplied living in the closet. LOL |
