Less than a week away!

It's been a few days since my last post, so many changes and pictures since my last update.  They have started to clean which is nice to see.  The tile is up in the bar and the granite around the bar is finished... looks great!  The bar ledge around the pool table wall was also installed and is even better than I expected.  All of the bathroom fixtures (towel bars, rings, toilet paper holders, etc.) are in place.  There is tile above the desk in the kitchen, even though there was not supposed to be... not yet sure if I'm going to have them take it down.  The kitchen backsplash will get tiled on Monday.  The fixtures were installed in the garage bathroom but it was painted the wrong color, so that will have to be changed as well... my list of things they have to fix is getting quite long.  The exhaust fan in the 1/2 bath was switched out with a fan/light so it is much brighter now.  The basket drawers were installed in the master closet and the big mirror above the master sinks.  The master shower is nearly finished.  The glass is in and there are just a few more pieces of tile that were backordered to go up, then the grout.  That shower just might be the coolest thing in the entire house.  I talked to the guy laying the tile and he told me this is his work of art and just might be one of the neatest things he's ever done.  He said he's got about 60hrs of labor tiling that shower... kinda makes me wonder what that's costing me :-/  I met with my realtor on Friday to sign a bunch more papers.  The radon inspection is this weekend and I have a home inspection on Tuesday.  I will also have a walk-through with the contractor next week.  I'm working from Macomb on Monday, in Peoria on Tuesday and Wednesday, then packing on Thursday and starting to move on Friday!  Only 1 more night in the hotel.  I'm then off work the following week as well so should have plenty of time to get moved in.

  1. You got me wondering what your ceiling fan light looks like. It would be nice to get a glance of it because I am trying to get an idea of what type of ceiling fan light would look better in the bathroom of our master’s bedroom. We have a few, existing choices, but it wouldn’t hurt to fish for some more.
