This week has been really busy. Mia and I have been flooring like crazy people, Zander has been doing electrical, Sarah has been sanding a piece of wood and helping daddy, and mommy is still painting and getting her Bondo fix on a daily basis.
Mia and I have been installing the Versalock flooring all week. The flooring is pretty simple to install, it practically clicks together but the hard part is all the prepping and the thinking that it involves. The fact that we get paid a dollar a square foot has helped our mood and willingness to work.
The back bathroom and bedrooms have been a group effort and they are mostly finished now. But the electricity needs some help, the walls need some touch ups, and the sink in the bathroom has yet to spout water.
We are almost done with the master bedroom and bathroom. Zander and Daddy have been working really hard to get the plumbing, electrical and appliances in working order so that they can move on. As of today, the bathroom lights don't work most of the time, the fan doesn't work and needs replacing, and we are lacking in the shower door department. But it still looks pretty good even though there are very few things that work.
For the last four days Zander has been working on installing lights, fans, switches and plugs. Zander has been stuck with one of the worse jobs. to wire some of the electrical, Zander had to work in the attic which is practically a biohazard that is really hot.
The plan was to move into the back bedrooms and master by Friday so that we could work on the other parts of the house. Being us, we were behind schedule and we moved in on Saturday afternoon. Sarah and I are sharing the bigger back bedroom while Mia has the other, smaller, one. Zander is sleeping in Mommy and Daddy's old room while they moved into the semi-working master bedroom.
The end is in sight but there is still tons to do. Some of the electricity and plumbing is pretty questionable, that will be Zander and Daddy's job next week. Mommy will be working on repainting and repairing the last of the exterior. Mia and I will be finishing the flooring in the common areas and helping Daddy install the counter tops. I think that Sarah will be helping daddy install the cabinets but that is questionable. Bye.
