Almost there!


The new windows have been installed. We love our bay window! One tip: if you watch all those shows on TV where they demolish a whole area and 30 minutes later your dream room is ready for you to enjoy, forget it! For example: the windows have been placed but now they need to be framed. One of the windows needs sheet rock which is done by someone other than the person who put in the window - go figure! This someone else will show up two days later. The tiles are placed in the kitchen but we need to wait a couple days to dry in order to put in the grout. I wish I could say "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" and everything would be in place! The contract states that the job should be done in 120 days not counting any delays due to weather or materials. It is snowing today which might delay the installation of the siding. We still are on target. The dust too! Everything in the house had to be covered by plastic but it's not enough! I know, I don't seem optimistic but reality is that it will be over soon and completed as we had dreamed of.

It looks so fantastic. Can't wait to see it. Lucky you! Ron will be getting some fantastic dinners from the kitchen before he knows it! Marcia
