Nov. 5 - Working hard to get the house ready to move in

Our appliances are still en-route. Not sure when they will be delivered. Hopefully this week some time. We wanted them last week.

Brenda was busy all day touching up the white trim paint and removing the protective film from the Eagle windows and doors. The screens are on and with the film removed the view through these windows/screens is quite clear. There's a lake out there!

Today was a door day for me. I applied a third coat of polyurethane to all the interior doors first thing this morning and then changed all the hinges to satin nickel. Chuck was on the same door trail installing all the levers. Tom worked on the bathroom pocket doors to install the latch assemblies. For the most part all our interior doors are functional. We still have to install lever handles for the French doors to Brenda's "Do Room".

Tom and Chuck also the front entry door and the other exterior doors with their latches and locks. It's starting to feel like a home now that the front door is done. No pics just yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Larry and his helper Dave continued to work on the master bath shower tile. They also need to grout much of the lower bathroom shower are so Tom can set the toilet. They're making progress but it's moving along slowly.

Tonight Tom and Nick are working on plumbing under the island for the kitchen sink.

Another long day. Tomorrow I know that I have to put more poly finish on the stairwell and the lower level bedroom closet doors.

The kitchen cabinets will be completed on Wednesday/Thursday. The rain gutters are scheduled to be installed Wednesday. The carpet will be installed on Thursday and Friday.
