Slow progress lately

The last few days have been a little slow. I was so hopeful for a four day weekend to really churn out some progress. Not so. The type of wood flooring we need no longer comes in 2 1/2 inch wide planks. I was told by a representative at the flooring company we went to that we would either have to have it custom made (eek!) or have someone cut the wood down and re-create the groove. Oh my. Things are becoming more complicated. :) That said, I did not pick up a bundle of wood as I thought I was going to the other day.

We have much of the tar up at this point and are still planning our mode of attack for refinishing the floor. More updates on that soon.

Move in date is getting closer, much to our glee and dismay...we're crossing our fingers for everything to be finished. HVAC will be done on Tuesday. It was originally going to be done on Tuesday or Wednesday of last week, but due to delays (I'm not concerned with the details...just delays), could not be finished. It has gotten quite chilly the past few nights we have been working over there.

Today, I am off to conquer the bathroom vanity situation. We have already bought a can of paint, but now I'm second-guessing my choice after reading confusing, conflicting forum after forum. I'm headed to Sherwin Williams to ask some pertinent questions. Wish me luck!

  2. questions like: 'Will you give this bucket of paint to me for free?' and 'in addition to that, will you come paint it for me?'
