Hi all. Thanks to Lox and twg. DH and contractor got door open while I was sleeping in the morning. So I do not know how they did it and do not care and no broken door or gouges in molding. Think a screwdriver was involved at some point.
Finally, finally. The first row of hardwood has been nailed down in the kitchen. Hard to tell how it will look in the end yet but so far it is beautiful. We ended up having to replace the subfloor under the old kitchen island and there was some water staining at one wall so I made the contractor treat it for mold, just in case. Do not want a problem popping up in a year. Was told it was overkill but I do not care and DH got sick of listening to me angel so he just did the treatment.
Had the propane company out to the house for some reason and he inspected our fireplace logs and said that they were leaking propane into the living room. So we had him disconnect the propane and remove the logs. Now we have to find new fake logs. That is on a 'later' list since the pipe is capped.
We are replacing the stove and dishwasher with stainless steel ones and now DH wants a stainless refrigerator too. So looks like I am getting one of those too. No time to shop for any of it because contractor is here every day, even this Sunday. I do not feel comfortable leaving strangers in the house alone for a few hours even though he is a nice guy and the neighbor's brother. Maybe next week.
I have packed up most of my ecig stuff and have it in my bedroom so I have access to it. So much for the nice steeping setup and jumbled organized mess on my coffee table. Now I am hunting through two boxes of stuff. But it works and I am content with it for this short while.
Hope all of you are well and enjoying the approach of summer. Top, I hope all goes well for the little one. Hi, Maria. Good to see you back here.
