Textured walls







Paid out Home Depot. They still have some little patches in the walls they need to fix (3 holes inthe ceiling). Waiting to hear back from the electrical. Need to figure out when I'll be home to let him and the flooring dudes in. Also called the county commissioner about this 'triple fee' thing.

HD came over and finished the drywall in the garage and put texture on it.

The garage is all finished, signed off on, had final inspection! Now I'm trying to contact Home Depot and being unsuccessful. Hopefully I will get a call back tomorrow.

I had to pay my contractor a (ouch!) lot of money today for the whole project. Luckily my tax refund covers most of it.

Paul came over today and finished all the rest of the quarter round and transition pieces. Now just the vanity left!

The final inspection is today- they will come by any time now. Paul is also coming today to hopefully put in the vanity and finish the quarter round and transition pieces. I emailed Home Depot and asked them when they could start.

Put up the curtain rods in the computer room and in the living room.



Todays project is to even out this corner



The AC guys and inspector are coming by today- they failed inspection last time so they are making sure we pass this time.
EDIT: Both came and the AC passed inspection!

Hopefully the moat inspector and the termite guy will come today. The moat needs to be sprayed before we can pour concrete, which they didn't tell us last time.
EDIT:Termite guy came by today- sprayed the moat and additionally sprayed some red ant piles I had in my front yard- Thanks!
The inspector will drop by tomorrow.


I applied to have my triple fees reduced from the county, but they denied me because they said it isnt "unusual hardship" and that the fees stay with the property. =(

Paul can't make it today, so no vanity, but I can go and buy my faucet from Home Depot. I finally got my gift card in the mail. Potentials below
