WE HAVE A SINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have a sink......... ok so it's not permanent and the counter top is a piece of ply wood, but Heck we have a sink and a working dishwasher.

Next step getting the stove hooked up...

Saturday the glass guy is coming to measure the closet doors.
Mondial is coming next week to measure out the the Granite counter top. The only thing is we have to wait 2 weeks before they will be able to install the counter top...


I feel good, that we are making progress...

Still going!!!!

Nothing is ever as simple and as fast as we would like it to be. We have two too many corners and it has proven to be a bit challenging in install the cabinets. Lucky Kaz is pretty creative and has really made these corners work.
We are hoping they are all installed by the end of the week.
Today hopefully we will have a temporary sink installed...

Moving Right Alone!!

The floor is done and the cabinets are getting installed. We had a few minor issues installing the cabinets since there are a couple of corners but we have worked it out and hopefully today the upper cabinets will all be installed and tomorrow we can start with the base cabinets. Went to Sears yesterday and order a GE Profile Stainless Steel stove and matching microwave. Things look good.

Oh, Sh**! Part 2

If you were a fan of Oh! Sh*** The Joys of Ownership, well here comes part 2. Last night the gurgling returned. The only difference this time is that we were on our own- No Uncle John or my faithful Father In Law -- Kaz!. It didn't make it back to and out of the toilet this time-- That is the good news.
Around 10pm we were alerted by our diligent tenant-- Kelly-- that she heard gurgling again. After a quick call to review instructions with Kaz, I was off to the basement to get it done.

- I opened up the sewer drain
- Instead of back up in the bathroom my drain was filled to the rim, and it wasn't Brim
- Note: You always knock off the drain cap closer to the street.
- I did this and the drain pit started draining.
- As soon as muck cleared I began plunging the stuck pipe.
- Something gave way and we were back in business.
- I cleared the remaining Muck out of the drain.

Time to finish-- roughly 20 minutes.

Most notably, I went down to the basement at least 5 times today. Call me paranoid-- It makes sense. Next up-- the plumber comes to figure out why we have had a crappy couple of weeks in the basement.

Halloween Night

This year the Reddish family joined up with the Robersten family of girls and went to the Glenwood Road Parade. All the neighborhood kids all came out for a fun night of trick or treating. This was Ryan's first Halloween he was dressed as a monkey. Alexander was suppose to be a Tiger and he did not want to wear it, so we gave him a cowboy hat. Dylan was Spider Man for a second year in a row. Dylan had the most fun running around trick or treating with his buddy Kate the Witch.
After trick or treating with the girls, Dylan then wanted to go trick or treating with his friend Josh who was dressed as Batman.
It was a long and fun day for all the kids.
