| Inside,
the granite counter tops are installed, and they look gorgeous.
They go great with the cabinet color and the pulls and knobs Kristi has
selected. Outside, the stucco crew returned to try to match the color better. Now, if you look closely (in person), you might see that our house has three colors: the old color, the new color that almost matches the old color, and the area that had the rejected color over painted by the new color. The stucco crew must have known the concrete pour was imminent as they made a big ol' muddy mess. Note the dog fence to keep Dancer out of the mud. |

The granite is in! This may
be the first meal on the new counter top; it is most certainly the
first scowl.

The office floor is installed now,
although baseboards are still pending. Another job that Keith
knows he can do (because he's done it before) but will just have Craig
do it because he can knock it out so quickly. Besides, more than
one remodel veteran has told Keith and Kristi tales of telling their
contractor to leave the baseboards to them, and then the room goes
unfinished for months.
This is a good shot of the job that does lie ahead of us, however: redoing the closet space with more and better shelves. |

To have that nice empty picture of
the office above, all the office stuff must still be piled in the
bedroom. Too true. But the ceiling fan is added, so the
contractor's job in the bedroom is complete. Oh, I guess he
better cover that vent. The work left (furniture arranging and
window coverings) is our responsibility.
