Closer to Done

It's Monday afternoon and we're one step closer to being done. Tim, the cabinet maker just left after finishing the new vanity. It looks great now that the trim is on and the hardware. Now, we just need the faucets (they'll be done tomorrow) and then the mirror. We've decided to get a new mirror that will extend the entire length of the vanity. It will be a lot of mirror but I think it will look great after Bob frames it. That will take a little while as we're going to have to order the new mirror and he'll have to buy the frame and then Tim will have to stain it again. We are close to done though and all's well that ends well. It will be worth the wait and additional expense. Henry also came today and sealed the shower so we'll be able to use it tomorrow after HR comes and connects the new shower trim. The shower came out beautiful. We love it and once the trim is in, it'll be perfect. We'll be able to move our stuff back in tomorrow and get the house back together just in time for the holidays!

HR (the plumber) is also going to install a reverse osmosis water filter. The water here really tastes and even smells bad. I'm not sure if the drought is making it worse or if it's what it's treated with but in any event, I can't drink it. I'm really looking forward to good tasting water.

No running today but I am going to do a weight lifting workout and maybe a spin class. Gotta get in shape for Umstead. I think the spinning is really helping to strengthen my hamstrings and they really need it.

Okay enough babbling for now. Off to workout!
