The end is near


The house is coming along nicely. We had the roof professionally cleaned on Friday. Here's a new picture of the house. The shutters are off and in the process of being painting but the bushes are trimmed and the roof is clean!! We had an electrician come out and install vanity lighting in all of the bathrooms along with pendant lighting over the breakfast bar. A tile lady came to the house today and started the countertops. We're doing ceramic tile on those. She should be done Saturday. We had to push the carpet back to this coming Monday. I might push it back again...it depends on how far we get tomorrow night. I don't want to chance spilling paint or grout on the new carpet. We have nearly all of the painting done. Three of the bathrooms remain and one is only a half bath. Yay! We've got a friend coming by Saturday to look at finishing our laundry room. Only half of it is finished. We'd like to advertise a 100% finished basement when we sell, so this should help our resale...hopefully.


We're over our timeline but I guess that's okay. We're shooting for the 15th now. My fiance tells me that was the original date and somehow I bumped it up to the 1st. We're going to have an open house around that time. Hope we get a good turnout. We are undecided about going with a realtor. I think we are going to try to sell it and if we don't get any bites, we'll call the pros.
