Maybe someone is pushing that turtle!

Today should be a fun day at the house.  The countertops will go in the two bathrooms.  G thinks that means that the bathroom sinks will be set too.  Thanks to kitchen cabinet mistakes, the kitchen countertop can't be put in.  Still waiting on that one renegade replacement cabinet to show up.  Now you know, as I do, that as soon as the granite folks leave, a call will come that the replacement  cabinet is ready to be picked up.  The doors are all in and framed.  There are some pretty awesome sliding pocket doors (paneled) back in the master bedroom.  Baseboards are going in.  We've been told that painting may begin this week.  Things are moving along, which, needless to say, we're ready for.  We still don't have a completion date.  The plan, when we're able, will be to move, put our present home on the market, and move full steam ahead to deal with legal issues that will hopefully recover funds that we've spend getting the house inhabitable.  I've neglected to mention my shoulder.  I'm out of the sling and have been for a couple of weeks.  I'm going to physical therapy twice a week and,  YES, I'm dutifully doing my exercises!  I'm still having pain, which I'm told will be the case for quite a while.  As long as I can manage not to fall on the snow/ice outside, I'll be fine!  Anyone watching me walk outside probably thinks it's a comedy show ....I walk like a robot.....one cautious step following another.....just want to be sure that I don't fall.

Sounds like a good report all the way around.

I just know you are taking pictures of the progress and can't wait to see them!

Yay!

I know what you mean about people watching you walk...I always think about that when I am out and run into a cloud of gnats or a lone bee. No one from far away sees it, but you side step and stutter walk until the annoyance is gone. I am sure it is a sight to behold. Stay safe on the ice.

Good news on all fronts Jan. I can't wait to see the photos either.

I am pleased to hear you are taking care when walking on the ice/snow.....I am trying to picture you walking like a robot!
