6/29/25

It was another productive weekend. Rick left on Thursday, and I arrived Friday afternoon in a heavy rainstorm. He worked on the bathroom flooring, installed some baseboards, installed the sink in the 2nd bathroom, installed the pocket door in the 2nd bathroom (not trimmed out yet), and built the storage bench in the kitchen nook before I got there. After the jig was set up and a refresher course, I drilled holes in the drawers and doors installed the cabinet hardware in the kitchen and main bathroom on Friday and Saturday.

Saturday, we also installed the kitchen counter tops, kitchen sink and garbage disposal, vacuumed up lots of saw dust, and cleaned drywall mud out of both showers. Becky came by and mowed the yard--it's looking really good right now. On Sunday, we installed the kitchen faucet and the microwave, worked on the 3 closets, and did more sanding and filling nail holes. We also picked up the non-working stove/range at Mother's house and brought it back to Lubbock for possible repair.

It seems to be moving fairly quickly now. We need to install both shower doors before proceeding with the sink in the main bathroom and the toilet/over toilet cabinet in the 2nd bathroom. We also need a little more flooring to finish the closet floor in the 2nd bathroom. The baseboards and door trim throughout the house need to be taped and painted, hot water heater needs to be installed, dishwasher needs to be purchased and installed, ceiling fans installed, vanity lights and mirrors installed in bathrooms, back door replaced, utility room window replaced, utility room cabinets painted, doors re-installed after trim painted, undercabinet lights installed in kitchen, sidewalks poured, etc. so there's still some stuff to do.
