Our lack of regular updates of late should tell you we’re busy as heck. Between work, house and holidays, we haven’t had a moment’s rest. We’re desperately trying to get our certificate of occupancy before the end of the year. In the last couple of weeks we’ve finished all Sheetrock and taping, all window sills are in and most of the final electrical is in, including switches, outlets and fixtures.

The big push has been the kitchen. The small half walls were completed last week and the appliances arrived on Friday. As of last night all Ikea cabinets had been assembled. There’s only a small bit of finishing pieces left. The countertop fabricators are at the house today to template the island and two small counter tops. The counters are scheduled to be installed the 29th.

Other activities for this week include finishing electrical and plumbing. We also hired a tile guy to finish the shower this week. And trim is going up at a furious pace.
