Finally some action.

I went to the house after school to see what was going on and ended up spending the evening helping Erik get stuff done. Job #1 was labeling the lighting for the electrician who is coming tomorrow. Note the orange stickies...





Granite is in! Isn't it shiny?

We got a great deal! Sink = free! So that made up for the undermount...

Master bath, too!

This is Erik starting to tile the surround.

























These are the vanities in the other bathrooms.




























And the travertine in the master bath...













Erik met with the plumber today and we are facing a few issues before things really get going. He actually fixed one thing Bill did incorrectly, but doesn't want to start until the land is graded so he can get his backhoe in. Andy didn't want to grade the land until the hole made by Bill was filled. We're going to have to explain this dilemma to him and see if it changes anything. If we have to get everyone we know out there with a shovel to fill the hole and get this going, we will just have to do it.
The HVAC guys came to put vents and the outside unit in, and weren't able to do the unit because of the trench Erik had Angel dig so we can connect the electricity. So there's another hole that needs to be dug (under the wall, that is) so we can run the wire and have TXU connect it to the house so we can fill the trench and get our air conditioner. Holes.
But the electrician will come tomorrow and put in lighting which is way exciting. And Erik's on the job to get the above situations under control. One thing at a time.
