Looks like we are another step forward on the project. Well most of a step. I would estimate that 3/4 of the floor in the project room are down and looking good! The tile choice may not be everybody's favourite, but we like it. Obviously we like it, We chose it. Though I will say that this very strange Covid centric year has made selecting decor challenging.
Knowing the supply chain issues that are a pain in everybody's project right now, we walked into the tile store with one question for the nice lady who works there, "What tiles do you have on hand right now?" She directed us to a small handful of possibilities and we made our choice from amongst those. We didn't even look at any of the others because we didn't want fall in love with something that we couldn't get for 6 more months. Nope. This project has gone on long enough already. And as you can see, we still do not have dry wall up. Nor ceiling insulation. Nor a back door which, now that I think about it, you cannot see from this photo anyway. The story on the door goes like this. We were told that the door actually did arrive, but it was damaged so it had to be re-ordered. Uhoh. Or as Astro the dog from the Jetson's cartoon would say, "ruh roh". We also made the decision to have the existing slider between the living room and the new project room taken out, which means the door and the track. So that still needs to come out. And eventually lighting and fans will need to go in and the exterior stucco and paint. And interior paint too, of course. So it ain't done yet. I'm hoping that it will be done by Christmas. Fingers crossed. That would be an awesome Christmas Gift. And unfortunately, not one that Santa can fit onto his sleigh. But there are a few weeks yet to go and lots to do in that time both for me with getting ready for the holiday and for the builder guys with finishing the project. But hope springs eternal and hopefully, it all wraps up soon. Fingers Crossed!
