Canada Day was Great! Not so great for Renos

Hope you all had a great weekend and that everyone arrived home safely. It was pretty busy at our place. We're in the middle of renovations (like who planned that), our kids and grandkids dropped in for a stayover, a whole wack of relatives brought their younguns' to our place to watch the parade from our front lawn and our niece was having a family grad party. Whew, makes me tired just thinking about it.

Like I said, who planned for reno's in the summer. It all started out thinking about painting a wall and then the missus got fired up and the next thing you know we're taking off switches, ripping out carpets, puttying cracks and nail holes, priming, painting and putting down flooring. OK, now I'm tired. In any case its moving along nicely and we should be finished in the next couple of years.

No I'm just kidding we plan to have it all done by long weekend in August. We just have to tell visitors they can only stay for a few minutes, pay their entry fee to view and then either strap on the tools or get lost. Come back for the open house and bring gifts if you feel badly.

Here's a quick shot of what the bedroom floors are going to look like. They are all in Walnut and the one we have finished looks gorgeous.  the wall colours are a bit different the light colour is called Kicking Horse by General Paints and the darker wall around the windows is Tomchuk and the window treatments are longer, in beige with the same tab hung curtains and they are much more effective at keeping out the light. I'll load pics when the room is completely finished with the baseboards and door trim.

We've finished the bathroom for now as well. It got a new coat of paint, light fixture, switches, cabinet and mable top with new taps. I've taken before pics and will put up the before and afters when we finish. Thanks for dropping in. We'll see you again soon.
Dave.
