Reality

It's starting to set in that a lot of the work that is left to do cannot or won't be done until the counter tops are in. The counter tops are scheduled to be installed on July 15. The floors will be scheduled for right after that. I figured they would be the last thing to be done, but when I talked to Dave yesterday, he said that the electrical usually is done after the counter tops. He was going to check with Andy if they wanted to come in and do some of the electrical - under cabinet lighting, switches and covers, etc.

I rescheduled the refrigerator delivery for July 20 and pushed my end date until then - we cannot be finished until we have our refrigerator. But, now I'm not so sure that we'll have much installed by then - if the floors are not done by Friday, the 17th, then they won't be putting in any of the appliances. I hope for good weather because the humidity will delay the floor refinishing.

Our door and window still was not in, so that is another disappointment. I was really hoping that it would be in this week, and we could come home to the door to the deck being there. If we are going to have to deal with no kitchen for another 2 weeks, it would be very helpful to have access to the deck. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
