Update – Nov 21, 2008

Things are moving along, as you can see from the pics.  We went with Vinyl Tile in the Kitchen and non downstairs bath, and are pleased with the result.  Painting is mostly done, and we have our bathroom vanities and laundry room cabinets.  Outside the electrical trenching is done, and we are looking forward to power hookup, hopefully in the next few days.  After months of temporary power from the old house, the idea of flipping a switch and having light, or just plugging into the wall outlet seems almost exotic.

 

 

Update – November 7, 2008

 

Cabinets were installed, and are already well loved.  Gaylen found some pulls she likes, and the cabinet maker will install.  We are trying to get some vinyl tile installed so the cabinets can be finalized.  Our fireplaces were fired off, and we can lower our power bill (we have been using space heaters to keep the sheetrock and paint drying).  The stairwork has been started, and some doors are hung and some millwork installed.  Lee is back and we are trying to get the downstairs furnace working off of an extension cord.  Some of the electrical plugs and switches are installed.  We are very anxious to get our power installed!!!
