Not only did I finally get everything worked out on our PC so I can run the needed updates and hopefully install the network card to work with our new router, but they are finished installing the toilet and shower fixtures and are taking the larger of the two glass walls upstairs now. Almost surprisingly, it actually fit up the staircase without any chaos which was making me a bit nervous lately. So now it’s just a matter of them getting it set and sealed and then that room should be pretty much good to go. We won’t have a sink for a little while thanks to IKEA and their madness but I think we’ll do without just fine. Just having a real shower will be a very nice change.

And here’s the current status of the holes around the new door. Just about closed up indeed…too bad for them they have a couple more holes to worry with as well although the shower is getting priority which it should be since it’s the most important thing to us right now. We don’t plan on painting the exterior until the spring (whenever that decides to arrive this year) so we have time although we’d naturally like everything done as quickly as possible since it eliminates the need for tools to continue to lay around here.

And believe it or not, this is the current look of our chicken coop. As you can see it’s still full of all sorts of tools from the contractors although they started cleaning it out this morning already. The Del Conca tile boxes are ours but almost everything else they’ve brought over the last few months and left behind as was convenient. Definitely can’t wait for that part of the process to be over for a while.
