Our House...


...is a mess! Michelle and I just emptied all the lower cabinets in the kitchen. The drawers are stacked on the floor, two filled laundry baskets are under the patio table that we brought in. Pots, bowls, baking items are stacked on the patio table. The regular table is set up with coffee pot, large cutting board, so a person could get a snack tomorrow.

Most of our day, however, was spent on the bathroom floor. The painting of the walls was finished this morning, courtesy of Ray, and we began tiling this afternoon. It went pretty fast, and quite easily. Our floor is cement and very flat, which simplifies things. The process is a little different than laying 12" or larger tiles, but going around the toilet hole was so simple with the small pieces. The last box of ten tiles was totally damaged, so we pulled enough pieces off of the mesh to make four tiles. The rest will have to be returned, and I will have to have some pieces cut to fit against the tub and door. Perhaps I can make the patterns tonight.

So if everything goes according to plan, we will begin to put the house back in order tomorrow evening.
