Home Stretch

Supposedly, we are finally on the home stretch of our project.  I so hope that is true!  We have been told 3 more weeks.  I think I've heard that before, but it must be true this time?!

This week the plaster guys worked on their last room - the sunroom.  It had the lovely swirls like the kitchen/den did.  They should be done with it at the beginning of this week and then their part will be finished.
Back to the sea of plastic...

The main level would make a great haunted house!  Haha.  You can see the ceiling here.  Coming right along, no more swirls.
The painters painted all of the ceilings and most of the trim throughout the house.  They also primed the kitchen cabinets.  My color samples are still up and ready to be painted in their designated rooms.

Our new awning on over the basement door was installed.  It looks great!

Before...

If you can over look the mess outside, the new door and awning look much better!
The electricians have also worked hard this week.  We now have all white switches and plugs, new plugs where we need them, a new breaker box, and I'm sure some other things that I'm just not sure about.

So, here's what's left to be done...
  • Install and glaze cabinet doors
  • Install Appliances, Fixtures, Lighting, etc.
  • Paint, paint, paint!
  • Finish Electrical
  • Sand and Stain Hardwoods
  • Build step on patio where wall was removed
  • Encase new carport post
  • Repair ceiling in carport
  • Re-Hang Shutters
I'm sure there's more, but that's all I can think of for now.  As long as the inside stuff gets done and we can move out of the basement within 3 weeks, I will be thrilled!!  I'm thinking I'll just decorate for Christmas as we unpack....
