Nick called yesterday to tell me he'd received everything I ordered for the bathroom and kitchen (minus cabinetry)! Wheeee!
Next, he said there's no room for the wall
sconces I picked to flank the
oval medicine chest. I'd have to get the three light bar instead. Boo!
He also said the
pendant I picked for above the kitchen sink was too large. I didn't look at measurements; I just did a search for MINI pendants. Mini pendants can apparently include something 13 1/2" wide. Oops!
Oh well. On to other things. The
chimney guy came today to tuck point it. I ran over to the house to meet him after work. He was no where to be found so I commenced to opening ALL treasures Nick had left for me! CHRISTMAS!!!

| Stuff! |

| Cast iron tub (poo free) |

| Mirror..mirror on the wall |

| Lights! |

| More stuff! |
He had put together the pedestal sink so I pretended I was washing my hands using the
faucet. Then I primped in front of the mirror and admired the can lights he already installed in the bathroom and kitchen. I tried to pretend I was installing the giant pendant in the hallway but the nine foot ceilings impede that without a ladder. Double boo!
From no where, I hear the clink of what I imagined as reindeer feet and the tinkling of none other than--
dubstep--coming from above. Santa??? You're so hipster!
Nah, it's the
chimney guy. He was really sweet and quiet. Not who I expected to be a Skrillex lovin', chain smoker.
Here's his work:
Note: I do not have a fireplace. The chimney is to vent the furnace heat.
Up next: The footers and other concrete work should start this week, along with plumbing!
