Coming soon ...

... to a kitchen near you ... countertop :) We talked with our friend Derrick yesterday and we've scheduled his help on the countertop installation for Wednesday night. Wednesday ... as in two days from now. So ... what do we have left to finish before then? We have one more coat of varathane (tonight) and the installation of the drawer slides (tomorrow night). Hopefully we can get it done.

We have pictures of the cupboards thus far, but we can't seem to capture the colour of the stain very well. Maybe I'll still post a few tonight. We're very happy with how the stain turned out as well as the way all three colours (stained wood, natural wood, and countertop) look.

So, the plans for this week (I think this is the only reason I keep blogging - to keep track of my To Do list!) are:

Monday: varathane on cupboards (last coat)
Tuesday: install drawer cleats and slides
Wednesday: install countertop (yay!!)
Thursday: call electrician to set up time for stove installation ;)
finish crack-filling half-bath
wash master bath floor (still one more rinse of grout)
Friday: Sand crack-fill in half bath
Prime half-bath
Crack-fill master bath
Saturday: Crack-fill master bath
Paint ceiling in half bath
Paint walls in half bath (one coat)

And, if we can follow the schedule I've set up we should have the master bathroom finished (including the vanity, which we're building) by March 25th. The race is on to get the plumbing all hooked up by the end of the month!
