Busy

Well here we go with an update on the renovations in our house. We have gotten a lot accomplished and have been so busy all week and last weekend. So far this week we have gotten everything placed in the new bathroom and all the fixtures, Matt built the base for the new drop in tub yesterday and drill holes through the floor where the plumbing will be going. Yesterday I did 2 more coats of staining on the kitchen floor, It looks gorgeous now.
All week we have been extremely busy and doing things around the house. We got the kitchen all in place and everything where we want it now, Matt went shopping the other day and got our pantry and wall oven cabinet and the new toilet and all the tiles for the bathroom. We are doing a small 4 x 4 tile all over the bathroom floor and then a white subway tile around the shower and wall behind the sink and toilet. It will be a very classy look for a bathroom I think.
Also I patched the remaining spots in the living room floor that needed to be done to make it all tie in, retoring floors that are over a hundred years old is rather difficult and very time consuming, but the end result is amazing.
Today we have lots to do, I need to finish scraping all the old glue off the floors and finish pulling old electrical and moving some of it, Matt is going to make attic access, yes the house had no attic access, because dumbnuts who use to live here covered it up for some god forsaken reason. He was a total idiot.
Our friend from Vancouver also arrived here on Tuesday night. and is here until July third, we are a bit behind schedule and knew he was coming and thought we would have the spare room done before he arrived. We did not so the spare room is smaller and part in parcel of the old washroom. So we had to hang curtains in between the bed and bath so at least he has a little privacy.
Well that is all for now. Have a great day.
