Almost Done?

I'm not sure it is possible, but I think the end of the renovation process might actually be in sight!  Lots got done today.  Carpenter Drake hung the pantry light and put on doorstops while the plumber actually got the bathroom DONE!  He reset the toilet, hooked up the vanity faucet, installed the ceiling exhaust fan and put up the shower grab bar.  Here is a photo of the finished bathroom:

I am very pleased with how it turned out.  We still need a new shower curtain and a new shower nozzle... (gosh, did I say the bathroom was done?).

Tomorrow the painters will come and hang the wallpaper in the entry, and do some touch-ups other places.  

The workers have mostly cleaned up their mess that was the garage.  Hubs and I also spent some time today after they left re-cleaning the kitchen which was covered with a fine layer of sawdust. (I think they usually left the door to the garage open when they were working.)

We also had a meeting this afternoon with the salesman from Levis4Floors.  He brought a sample book, measured the house and then gave us a price estimate.  He also emailed later with a better estimate (after talking with the boss).

Worth noting is that the square footage was different with each person who measured.  TSTSRN came in at 1116 sq ft.  Rite Rug was at 1014 and Levis was at 990.  I'm not sure how they can be so different, but they were.  The first one used an electronic laser gadget, and the other 2 used regular measuring tapes.  

After talking about it tonight, Hubs and I agreed we are going to stick with Rite Rug.  The bottom line is that we liked their carpet better than all that we saw from Levis, and even with a lower square footage, Levis still can't beat RR's price.  

I think that's it for today's updates.  Thanks for reading, and don't forget to feed the fish!
