Side note ... slightly freaking out ... we signed up with TECO for gas service on 9/15. Supposed to take 8-12 weeks for installation. Cue to today (not even 3 weeks later) and the guys show up to trench the lines. Minor panic attack ... luckily I was home when the men came to put in the pipes. So now I need to order the water heater and start demolition of the hall closet so we're ready for the new plumbing in time.
Also ... ordered new natural gas outdoor tankless water heater for cottage to replace existing (20-year-old) one.
Wednesday ... recovering from Tuesday's panic attack and getting organized to move budget/scheduling around to accommodate being 7 weeks ahead of schedule.
Thursday ... Water heater sitting on front steps when I get home from work. Holy crap, that was fast.
Saturday/Sunday ... continue painting cottage kitchen. REALLY trying to get this project off the books. Got the rest of the doors primed on all sides and painted on at least one side; also got a second coat of tan on the base cabinets and white gloss on the uppers. Demo'd the shelving in the cabana bath. Next up ... taking out the drywall on the two interior walls so we can assess the plumbing situation.
Also ... picked up some clearance goodies from the 'rents - new bedding and dishes for the cottage. Also found some fabric on super markdown clearance at JoAnn ($3/yard!) - which solidifies the color palette for the cottage:
love this ... and so excited about how it coordinates with the new bedding:
Now I'm off to see what beautiful countertops I
