No Rest for the Weary

Just because the weekend comes, don't think that we just kick back and bask in the glory of our homebuilding successes (knock on wood). We spent Saturday moving the rest of our junk out of the duplex - the entire day Saturday - and Sunday we (cough) skipped church and spent the morning at Home Depot/Lowes picking out plumbing fixtures. Mom and I had spent the whole day (ok, Erik came at lunch and helped) going to plumbing wholesalers to look at what they had and get quotes and it was pretty much a waste of everyone's time. So we got on the internet Friday night and decided to use the big box home stores and eBay to get our stuff. We picked out a Jacuzzi tub for the master and 2 bath/shower units for the other bathrooms. We also had to pick out shower fixtures so the valves can be installed during top-out. Lowe's didn't have a pic online, but we are going with oil-rubbed bronze, or ORB as the plumbing lingo goes...We also went by the house and swept the street and picked up the trash because that's just the kind of homeowners we are : )

Nice Jacuzzi - even has a little step. Glad that you are conscientious homeowners. It will be appreciated by your neighbors.
Keep up the good work.
