February 6, 2008

I went straight to the house after work and I'm now caught up with Donnie. Hopefully on the weekend I'll be well on my way to having the bathroom tile done too.

The second mock up of the window trim is really nice. It's a bit more refined and not at all heavy. We're really happy with how it's going. Now I need to get going on the varnish. Donnie is way ahead of me with putting the boards up.

Donnie has the first mock-up window trim done. It looks good but seems a bit heavy. He's going to try one tomorrow with narrower header and footer boards. We really like the square edged sill as opposed to the bullnosed sill we have now. It suits the house really well.

We worked at the house all weekend. I varnished the walls Donnie and Dad have built and I worked on finishing my shower membrane.

I spent my day off taking care of little errands that keep being put off. I bought the toilet and finally picked up the floor tile among other things. The tile is 13X13 and a chocolatey brown. I really like it. The shower floor tile a slightly darker 4X4 tile.
