When you close on a new house your employer should automatically give you a week off...paid.  Am I right?  I am going to attempt to take a few days off, but having to go back to work right after the closing is going to suck.  Especially because shawn took the day off :(

Our rep contacted us today, she did a walkthru of the house to check progress and she is delighted at the countertops - as am I - I actually cannot wait to sneak a peak this weekend and get some photos.  We also added (non stanard) a "recycling center" at the left of the island under the sink...so we can hide the garbage can someplace...timberlake cabinets forgot all about it so they have it on order.  We also have those shelves going in the master bath shower and thankfully she saw them upstairs on the floor with the rest of the tile they are going to lay next week so at least Rusmur Flooring is on top of their game.

We've been packing, and packing and cleaning and sweeping and packing - were going to move out of our old house this weekend since shawn is traveling for work monday and tuesday of next week.  What a major pain in the ass moving is...Im not sure what I thought, like a magical wand would appear and I could just point and have it all boxed up and labeled and in the trailers....poof!  It is dreadful...as all of you know.  But definitely worth the hassel.  Im so excited to not have to cut grass this summer when i come home from a 10 hour work day in 90 degree heat.

  1. I am with you on the packing thing. Packing up sucked, even worse since we had 6 weeks living with a friend and figuring out what to take and what to store! Now we are in (great!) and we got busy at work, so neither of us can take any time off (sucks!).
    good luck
