Macky finally arrived around 11 am with his number one helper, the funny guy. Actually it was just Macky himself that showed up at first and I was a bit concerned that Macky would be working alone today which means slower progress since he doesn’t have anyone schlepping stuff for him and prepping things…but apparently the funny on was on a mission to get breakfast or lunch you might consider it since it’s almost lunch time in my opinion…a brunch perhaps.

They are definitely doing a lot of work on the bathroom upstairs and since they already have the drywall up there, they just moved the metal studs up there as well and I hope that means that they are going to start building out the side step in the wall which is a very good thing since I’m guessing that will be the most time consuming part of the project since it will go all the way around the room…aside from laying the tile which is certainly a much smaller job than downstairs but since he has to cut each tile almost all the way through or risk breaking them, it’s still a pain. Now if we could just get the shower here so he can lay that in before doing the rest of the tile, I’m relatively certain he would be happier…but we’re still holding out hope that it will arrive before the end of the week and hopefully not hamper the progress too much…and of course we can certainly finish it up next week if need be since we thankfully have a full bath downstairs which is finished although lacking a standing shower…but we can’t have it all sometimes. There’s still some hope of just managing to pull it all off….
