WEEK 42: Just Pokin' Along

Hi Everyone,

Not much to post these days as it seems we are in a holding pattern waiting for the pool Shotcrete date (October 19th) to commence more work on the house. 

Most of the stuff inside has been fixing small things that we've commented on (moving light fixtures, centering a pedestal sink, sheetrock repairs, etc) and waiting for cabinet parts that haven't arrived yet (glass doors). 

Once all of that has been completed, they will reshoot the interior house paint again and start the touchup process.

Master Bathroom

As we mentioned before, they forgot that we were installing a jetted tub, so the original design had to be demo'd and rebuilt to accommodate the door to the jet pump in the event of a repair. This is finally underway now, and the tile guys were here today to get started.

The Culprit

Guest Bathrooms

Along the way, they have managed to complete the guest bathrooms. We'll quietly replace the curtain hangers with glass enclosure on one of the bathrooms right after we move in. The second guest bath is awaiting the glass enclosure.

Front Yard

Given the size of the lot, the front yard is minimal landscape with minimal maintenance, as per the game plan. The pavers will outline fake grass, since I sold the mower in San Marcos 👏 and have no intention of ever mowing again. There will be shrubs along the house line bending around to the side yard.

Extra Stuff

We did notice today that we now have a water heater, and a new front door. There will be a water softener installed next to the water heater. Like, really exciting.

Well, that's it for this week. Have a great weekend!
