Bathroom reno
Ok- so it only took about 4 months- but the bathroom is pretty much done- the contractor has finished his share of the work, and i just have a couple of finishing details to take care of. Here are some photos!

My rant for the day
If I haven't said it before, let me make this perfectly clear-
Home (*&^% Depot sucks. Let me be more specific. Home Depot is good if all you need to do is go in and buy a light bulb or a garbage pail. BUT if you need any assistance at all or want to order an item, say for example a countertop, you might as well save yourself 3 or 4 hours of waiting around time and just stab yourself repeatedly with a blunt spoon. It would be more humane and certainly more productive. In case I lose my mind and decide I need to go to Home Depot again, please remind me it's better to fight the traffic and go to Reno Depot instead.

Breather
Well, the drawings for the Fujino/Lapointe residence are practically done. I issued them on Tuesday and am just waiting to see how the pricing is for the house. Hopefully there won't be too many changes required for the contruction drawings set. The grand total of hours spent is 398 so far, so now i get to take a breather and figure out what the next project might be. Ann's parents are coming in a couple of days and Grace, Kenn, Ashley and Abby just left here a couple of days ago. Then renos are in a bit of limbo as we wait for our vanity to be completed by the millworkers. Looking forward to having a sink again. I also wanted to include a couple of links that may be of interest to you:

One of these days i hope to figure out how to do a nice webpage, but for now this will have to do!
