Guedelhoefer Island

Sounds lovely, don't you think?



The kitchen cabinets were delivered this morning! Sadly, they will remain in the garage until we get permits. Woops! Long story.... sort of.

Hopefully, work will restart at the end of the week and I'll have more to show you . . . .

Whoa! Where's the ceiling?

So I guess we're doing something about the ceiling! Actually, I knew we were eventually . . . just didn't know it was starting so soon!  Cool!

Popcorn... gone!

Actually, this is a somewhat dated shot of the shower stall. It already has some sort of base for the tile work. It's just been too dark for me to take a decent photo. And really, it's not that interesting until we get to see some of that tile!


Admittedly, this photo isn't that exciting for anyone except me. I have an inexplicable affinity for 5 panel doors. And now I have them! The previous doors were beat up flat slabs. Boring and dated. Although, I'm sure they fit with the era of the home. So I'm mixing it up a bit!  Hardware is ordered.

In other good news, all the tile has arrived - bathrooms and kitchen floor (1,800 lbs of tile for the grand total of $99 in shipping - awesome.)

And! I am told that the kitchen cabinets are slated to arrive between July 26 and 31.  WAY earlier than I expected! Yay for recession - we're probably their only order! Ha! Too soon?

Next up - choosing the counter tops....

A [two dimensional] dream kitchen!


Here it is!  Or rather... soon it will be! This is almost exactly what it will look like (barring major budget considerations :-) )
