Not-so-good news

Apparently the wrong linoleum was ordered, and they're going to have to re-order it. No clue what that means for the time-table, but my mom is not happy.

Getting closer

From my mom:

The house is coming along. With any luck the main paint job will be finished by Sunday night. Friday the hardwood was started and the living room is half completed. Monday the linoleum goes in. Thursday the bathroom marble shower walls go in. Hopefully we will get the carpet started this week also. Christmas Eve the cabinets and counter tops are delivered, and they go in the day after Christmas. We now have all our appliances purchased and they are waiting to be delivered around the 28th. Will we make the big move back by the first week in January? We'll see.

P.S.

The "between Christmas and New Years" goal is back up again. Why do we believe this stuff? I guess you have to believe something.

IT GLOWS

I kid you not. The paint is being done this week and it is PINK peach. It looks pretty subtle in natural light until you turn on interior lights and then it GLOWS like the inside of the peach in the book James and the Giant Peach.

The wood flooring was delivered today and will be put in beginning Friday.
