We are in the home stretch now - for this phase of the project anyway! Eric and I decided that it was very good for us to set a move in date (3 days away!) to push us even though it is going to be rough in the beginning.
Big weekend news - Eric finished the shower tile installation. He worked really, really hard on it this weekend, and it paid off. Last tile to be installed is the backsplash tile. I am not fretting about that too much although it will be nice to eventually have a fully functional bathroom.
I did a lot of little tasks over the weekend. Filled up both compost bins for compost day. They are 2 96-gallon cans so that is a big job. Painted the floor in Murphy's room (AKA guest room upstairs). Finished some more electrical work - I am close to finishing there. Painted the front wall. The new front door was bigger than the original (another reason to hate the Crayola crayon door), and so the drywall had to be altered when the door was installed. I had to paint that whole wall. Started to set up Murphy's room with a little unpacking action there. I am having trouble with unpacking especially in the kitchen. I have to separate stuff that will go in very limited cabinet space from stuff to go in the pantry for now to stuff that will remain packed for the time being (until kitchen is done). Not easy to make those decisions.
The house is going to be rough for a bit when we move in. But I am hoping that with less commuting time, we can get some more little chores done to make the house livable.
