TWO TIMES IN ONE WEEK!?!

OK...y'all hold on to your shorts, your hats, your mouse...whatever! It is hard to believe but I've received pictures twice in one week!! So of course like any proud mom...yes this is my baby and it has been 7months...so here you go!! This picture is from the inside out I guess its like kitchen/living area looking out onto the deck. The big gaping hole will be filled by a sort of panoramic folding door one day!





These are just some glass block accents in the master shower. The master showere is actually 4x7 will when done have a glass block wall partial enclosure. It's hard to see but there will be a rain shower and a pressure jet... I cannot wait to have water pressure!!!

BALUSTERS!!

It's actually starting to look like something!! This may not look like much to you but... to me its like the sun came out on a cloudy day!! They ARE working!! It's hard to believe it when you don't have anything to see...


...hopefully through-out the week or at least until Wednesday, they will work on getting the sun (roof) deck balusters up!


I know at some point the windows are to go in but I think that would be after paint right!? ...Either way...throughout this process I have learned to NOT count your chickens before they hatch!!

IT'S COMING ALONG!!

Today i received some new photos, which actually made me believe that things were actually coming along! This week they actually started the balusters. YAY!!
The balusters are to rim the the stairs up to the deck, the deck, and the roofdeck. So far this is where we are.





All the wood laying around is actually to form the plane on which the balusters will sit. If you look to the right in this picture behind the stack of balusters, you can see 2 already added to the form. Of course everything is done in cement so this too will take a few weeks to dry.

And as that dries they are supposed to start even-ing out the interior floors for all the flooring which of course will take another couple of weeks to dry! Then the window installation. Flooring... etc...Arrrgh!!...


Eventually, it will look like this... and I'm sure sooner (i hope )than later it will be done and all this watching and waiting will be just a thing in the past!


and...I CANNOT WAIT!!
