Pictures don't do justice. . .

Two exciting new things have happened in the last week. . .

Floors are refinished and really beautiful. The pictures really don't look as nice as the floors do. It took 6 days instead of the 2 I was told it would take (that put a bit of a crimp in the schedule, let me tell you). But, they do look nice.



And, the countertops are in! Again, they look nicer in real life than here. They are black granite. Very cool. I don't think I ever want to eat on them. And, I particularly like the note the granite guys left for the workers. . .



Moving day is set for August 2 (but don't tell the contractor--he thinks it is July 31). Any bets on whether or not everything will be done? Before you place your bet, know that the list on the laundry room wall is two pages long. . .
