Kitchen has been painted

The kitchen has been painted and the room is starting to look finished. The next step is the cabinets. I am not sure when that will happen.

We finally received the drain for the bathtub yesterday too. Now the workmen can proceed on installing the tub. You remember how the kitchen looked so messed up when they were working on it, well, with the bathroom being so small, it really looks bad right now. They have to dig up the old drain and move it over for the bathtub so there is digging and dirt. Wiring is going on for the lights, recessed and sconces. Outlets have to be moved. It has to be hard to work in such a small space.

They removed that door that wasn't moved and hidden from before. We now have an easy access to the main room. (We actually can't walk to the other room but we can hear quite well). It will be closed up but I was surprised how close we are to the other room. I am just glad we have a working bathroom. They wanted to demo the second bathroom this past Saturday until Dad told them to hold off. It would have meant no operating bathrooms. Whew, that was a close one.

We still have the laundry room floor to be done. The washer and dryer are sitting down lower than the main floor. I guess it was done in case the washer overflowed it would be contained? The garage is lower than the main part of the house so this was not necessary. We are having the washer and dryer moved and having that space filled in with concrete so the floor will be one level. The floor will be sloped to the garage so any water will go that way.

So once that is done, then the w/d will be put back, the cabinet we have for storage will be put back, and then the new flooring.

The flooring will be the last thing. We are replacing all the flooring in the kitchen, hallway, laundry room, and both bathrooms. We will have a simple design put into the floor in the entry way just to break up the color a little.

We are just can't wait to see everything finished.
