Door Desk

My vision when I designed the basement space was to have a wall to wall desk, but then I fell in love with idea of a door desk.  Lucky enough I had an old door that was the right width to match up with some Ikea shelves to create my new desk.

Curtains

My special order fabric which was supposed to arrive in less than 6 weeks ended up taking 12, I've lived that long with only one curtain panel, but I couldn't be happier to finally have a finished set of curtains.

Tomatoes

The plants on my deck have ripe tomatoes, but I just can't bring myself to pick them.

The Foor is Done the Painting is Not

The bathroom floor has been finished for a few weeks (already?) but I still need to finish some caulking and painting around the shower.
The laminate vanity counter, which I already disliked, clashes terribly with the Travertine tile so I need to research my options for replacing it.

So Close

Over the course of three twelve hour days and then some my Dad took the my bathroom floor from demolished to finished.




My job was painting and bringing a constant supply of clean buckets of water during the grouting process. Unfortunately the grout needed 24 hours to cure, so the baseboards cant go up until tomorrow.  Almost there...

This Floor 's About to Go

My Dad can't play golf this week (he normally plays almost everyday) so he offered to tile the floor in my master bathroom!  My job was the demolition...

Off to Madison

Cathy and John's wedding is this weekend so I am skipping out of work early today for the road-trip to Madison.

There have been no further developments in the basement, I am on strike until my favorite season  is over.
