Days 123-128: Floors, Walls, and Granite

Finally uploaded more pictures, and have yet to take some today.

We've stayed away while the floors were refinished. Back in today and everything looks great. I found some irregularities on the floor but Bryan spoke to the finisher and we'll get those addressed.

The house was abuzz with activity this morning as the plasterers came back to address the myriad spots marked with blue tape on the walls and ceiling, the floor got covered by pink paper, and the granite guys came to measure and template for the tub deck/shower seat/shower curb.

The house is far from done but I'm looking forward to seeing it coming together quickly. I'm painting this weekend.

I'm a lame blogger / Floors being sanded and finished today

OK, so the blogging fell apart when Cheryl's graduation/kids out of school/vacation came crashing down. I'll going to retroactively post updates with the pictures from the missing weeks soon.

The project has progressed well - we're getting close to having a kitchen back. The floor refinishers are sanding right now and will apply the first coat today, second coat tomorrow. For the next few days we're staying at a friend's house while they are at their vacation home, until the polyurethane cures.

Pictures coming soon...
