Thursday Morning

Well Wednesday was another work day as our floor installers where here until nearly 7 PM. They are doing a magnificent job and work great together as a husband and wife team. She is a very strong gal and handles these 50 plus pound bundles of flooring like nothing. We finally got into the kitchen where about 2/3 rd's of it was laid before they left for the day. They live on the other side of Tampa and have at lest an hour or more drive over depending on rush hour.

I started the day with my usual before 6 roll out. I did my morning routines that started with a cup of hot tea laced with turmeric while I posted this ramble then spent some quiet time with my Creator in humble thanksgiving for another day and then lifted up those I know who need some special thoughts for healing and comfort. Afterwards I started working on some minor projects after making a run to Home Depot for some needed items for our installers.

I painted the calendar holder for Nancy which we installed in the kitchen and then did some dry wall mudding along the areas where the old backsplash was removed. They got here sometime around 10'ish and went right to work finishing up the guest bathroom and closets which take up so much time with cutting into the door frames so the flooring can go underneath. The transition from the flooring to carpet in the two bedrooms isn't going smoothly so I'm thinking of having them continue to do the bedrooms as well. I need to get an estimate as well as order more flooring materials to do those rooms. We love the deep dark rich color of the flooring and it so looks like real saw cut boards and the texture on bare feet imitate that as well.

We set the commode and got the water hooked up and now we just need to do the master bathroom and the kitchen. We need to remove the fridge today(Thur) and move it into the garage where I will get rid of the old freezer. The new stainless steel fridge should be here sometime in the next couple of days. We still have tons of work to do but starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I of course have lots of cosmetic work to do with repainting the inside of the house now to match the floor and furniture. Nancy ordered a new white comforter set as the chocolate brown was just too much with the dark flooring, oh well.

I skipped pickle ball and will do so again today as I have so much work to be done with painting closet doors and inside closets as well. We ate a frozen pizza with a fresh garden salad for our supper and then watched some Fox Cable News before I hit the shower and then some horizontal lab for me around 10'ish, LATER
