A Productive Monday

Monday – normally not a great day.  Mine was productive.  I started off with a trip to Lowe’s to pick up a few things.  Shortly after I arrived at the rehab house, the plumber drove up.  I am working with a new plumber this time.  I used to work with a great guy who is a plumber but he could not pull permits.  After paying out the nose to his “buddy” to pull permits for us, I have moved on.  My new plumber is someone we go to church with and I know his family.  It’s nice to know I am helping to support the business of someone who is a nice family man.

So, the plumbing is underway.  We did pull a plumbing permit.  The hot water heater needs some tinkering and improvement, I have a number of sinks installs, a toilet, etc. 

I LOVE the way the upstairs bath is coming together.  The wall color really looks great with the white floor tile (was already in place) and the white toilet, black vanity, “brushed nickel” accents.  Very chic.  I love it!

My painter actually showed up today too.  It was a good day!  He’s another new team member. My painter took a full time (non-painting) job.  My new guy did some great work today.  Dare I say he may be even better than the old guy???  Well, I think I’ll hold off in my hopes until he actually shows up again tomorrow!

I returned loads of items that we didn’t end up needing to Lowe’s.  It’s much better to get a credit for a change.  Now I need to get someone out to haul off all of the stuff we have been tossing out back so I can get started fixing up the back yard.
