The first day of Christmas break

Today was a busy day...at least after I woke up. I had today off, so I got a chance to sleep in a little which was a big blessing! However after waking up it was off to dismantling the counter tops and then help the installers put in the new granite counter tops. I think they look great...and I'm realizing now I probably shouldn't just state it but also give you a picture. However, I'm sitting comfortably in my bed, getting ready to turn off the light...so sorry guess not this time =) After getting all that in place I went shopping for new faucet, and a bunch of plumbing supplies because the under the counter sink we had installed hung much lower and had different spacing that the old one. I got those installed tonight and at least so far there are no leaks...which is a good thing as plumbing can be finiky sometimes!


While I was out I did take a little bit to swing by Kohls and pick up a few pairs of pants/shirts and I also swung by my house. They have made some good progress since the last time I was out. It apears that all the electrical and water supply is installed and that they have been inspected, the roof has been shingled, the fireplace installed, and the windows and doors set. I do have photo's of that, so hear you go:

Wow, it's looking really good! When are you expecting it to be completely finished?

Thanks! They last told me that it would be done in mid-March. I'd say it is on schedule or early.
