Some of the Flooring Goes In

This is the upstairs bathroom flooring. This is the only room it is in. It is a tile laminate.

Here is looking towards the front door - from the back patio door. The wood laminate goes all the way from the front door & curves around thru part of the family room, to the back patio door & into the dining room & kitchen. This way you can walk from any door to all the others without walking on carpet.

This is the master bathroom - the floor in here is just like the mud room, etc. only it is a lighter color. Mel got the medicine cabinet put up in here too now - waiting on the lights above it though cause they have to be brought out farther to come in front of the cabinet.

This is part of the mud room/laundry room. To the left of this shot is the washer & dryer area. This is the flooring that is in this room, the pantry & the main floor bathroom right off the dining room.

Here is a shot of the dining room & kitchen. I cleaned the floors off a little bit, but they need a good cleaning cause of all the sawing, sanding, etc. that is being done - everything is very dusty in there! Just that little area between the island & the sink area needs done yet, then all the hard flooring will be done. The floor guys will be back tomorrow I believe to finish that & get the pad put down for the carpets. They may wait to lay the carpets till I get all the windows stained though for my convenience. The plumbers still have to come back too & it may be better not to have all the carpets laid while we still have workmen going thru the house. So we'll see how this all works out!

I have the windows stained in my bedroom & the guest bedroom - but that is all so far. This evening I went over there & put a coat of varnish on the 7 last doors that need it. So now they all have some varnish on them - these 7 will need another coat & then they'll all be finished. So the window frames are the next big project for me. I think Mel may put up the stairway railing, etc. this week - he wants to put it up before I finish that wood. He is leaving for a 10 day vacation on Thursday, so if he gets that up by then I can work on it while he is gone. This will be the first time he will have left the project for more than the weekend since he started! That's pretty good!
