Week Ending 12/29/07

- Tiled and grouted boy's shower,
- Boy's and master toilettes installed,
- Boy's and master shower installed,
- Master tub installed,
- Last window installed (downstairs bathroom).

It was an odd Christmas, spent in work cloths frantically laying tile to prepare for the plumbers at the end of the week. We made our deadlines, and were able to enjoy family time and Christmas traditions despite the ongoing project. Grammie Rucquoi filled a lot of gaps cooking and caring for the kids to allow us time for the work. By the end of the week, not only do we have most of the bathroom functions working (showers still need doors and sinks are not yet ready), but the many large boxes of plumbing fixtures are gone from the master bedroom. Along with the Christmas gifts, the children's room took many decorative steps, transforming them from a construction space to a living space. Outside of the continuing effort to trim and paint, the next big hurdle will be receipt and installation of the 26 interior doors.
