ALMOST!! Bathroom tile . . .

Well, Thursday the bathroom will be done, check out this tile job (pics are a little washed out, it's way more blue than this). . . designed it myself, installed by tile guy extrordinaire Sean,



I went with the same floor tile original to the place, except for the black flourettes . . .

Remember this?


Here is the new hood in the kitchen . The countertops should be done in 2 weeks . . .

And the bathtub

And the claws

ALMOST . . .

CABINETS!!

A lot happened this week. The kitchen went from this . . . (for some reason the pics are getting cut off)

To this . . .

Here's a pic of the new glass block window . . .

And the recycling center/butcher block/breakfast bar that has 4 compartments for garbage, glass, paper and plastic. . .

The hardwood floors . . .

And the spice shelves next to the stove and hood . . .


So, we couldn't be happier, so far. On another note, I took these pics of the morning glories in my garden . . .



We're off to Austin City LIMITS TO SEE BOB DYLAN THIS WEEKEND!!! When we get back the floors will be finished, and the bathroom will be closer to being ready to tile.

Drywall

The drywall is hung. Now starts the taping. Living with no bathroom and kitchen is getting old. 3 days of taping, then the wood floors, then the cabinets, all the while tiling the bathroom. I am staring to think the September 26th end-date is a pipe dream . . .
