Week 6 : Houston, we have Cabinets !!!

It's been awhile since my last post but it's been a busy couple of weeks on all fronts. Three Sharks games, busy on the day job and a weekend in Gasquet playing with my grandsons and visiting with my kids and the men in their lives. And...Karen's mom was with us as well.

While all this was going on Armando managed to put the cabinets in. Here's a link to a Picassa Album that shows the progression from open room to room with cabinets.

Things are starting to come together.

This week will be interesting. The drywall in the new bathroom and new closet in the new Master Bedroom is complete, the painter (that's moi) will be busy this weekend putting on a coat of primer.

The floor goes in on Thursday. This will be WONDERFUL for two reasons :

1) We're tired of walking on plywood and plastic with crap and dust all over the floor 24X7
2) The refrigerator goes in and we can have a real refrigerator for the first time in many, many months.

The granite counter tops go in on Friday. This will be WONDERFUL for three reasons:

1) The sink will be operational on Monday and Karen won't have to wash dishes in a little plastic tub inside the big tub. What a pain.
2) We also get a cook top next Monday which means we can cook pasta. Karen will be doubly happy on Monday.
3) It will look nice.

Next week the tile goes in both the kitchen and bathroom, which means a working shower is not far behind.

And finally...the Playoffs start tomorrow. My prediction : Sharks in 6, keep your eye on Joe Thorton, this could be his year in the playoffs
