20 days AND COUNTING!!

much has been done on the house this week -
Plumbing!
We have sinks, showers, toilets, disposal! WAHOO!
There were a few snags.
When the plumber came on Tues. he discovered that our water heater was not going to fit in the utility room, because the furnace was installed too far over. The countertops weren't put in until Thurs. So the sinks sat around on the floors, and Tyson had to move the kitchen sink into the living room so that he could prep the floor for putting in the laminate. Also on Thurs. Tyson did a bunch of work to get that waterheater into it's correct spot. he said it is a good thing he knew how to do some electrician work (thank you marine corps).
As mentioned the countertops were put in Thurs!!! I haven't gotten to see them yet, I am dying to.
Tomorrow is the big day! We have several helpers coming to assist in putting in the floor. We hope to do it all in one day. *fingers crossed*
Next week we have to get the interior doors painted - they have been standing up in the garage for days - but the waterheater has also been standing in the garage for days. Then when Tyson finally got it out of the way, and was ready to paint - the paint sprayer would not work. He got one big shot of glop on the top of one door, and then it quit.
After we get the doors done, we have lots of paint to touch up around the house, around windows and the tubs where things were taped off, and the paint came off with the tape :(
Not much else after that. Put the door knobs on the doors, hang the towel rods, etc.
Carpet comes the next week.
