stairrail is done, working on tile and countertops

the stair rail is finally done, we are waiting on the mantle, re-arrange of the closet shelving and rods in the master and a couple of baseboards and we will be done with the trim work.  Painters are supposed to come this week to start prep work and hopefully start painting by the end of the week. Doesn't feel like much got accomplished last week, but hopefully this week will go well. Paint prep is very detailed work and takes a long time, but in the mean time, i should be able to make final selections on tile and countertops.  Ordered the kitchen sink and that should be here on tuesday, the hood vent should be here on monday and the kitchen faucet and pot filler arrived last week.




I will be calling  Martin Spoonemore with affordable tree service on Monday to deep root feed the trees out front, 2 large post oaks and 1 magnolia. They  have me paranoid about them and I really want the trees to continue to look amazing. This drought is hard on the trees and while i have been watering them regularly, they apparently need some extra food etc. So hopefully Martin and his team will come out and feed the trees! Below is an older pic, but shows the beauty of these trees.


that is it for this week's recap. hopefully next week brings some more excitement!
