Week at the house

The construction is going on at the remodel. The construction team has been busy putting in all of the connections to the electricity, water and gas. The wall board is sitting on the floor of one of the new rooms ready for installation next week. The jacuuzzi tub is ready for installation with tile. The fireplace is in place and framed. All the connections for the kitchen and the laundry areas have been made. Even some popcorn ceiling has been scraped. (Don't tell Sue but I feel that this is the real reason that we have been doing all of this). The first thing that all of the real estate remodel shows show on T.V. when they tour the potential houses is yuck the popcorn ceilings have to go.. yada yada yada. So our popcorn ceiling have to go.

The cats are doing well. I go over and see them every morning before the construction crew arrives, and every night after they have gone. They seem to be hooked on the daily canned fish products that they score when I arrive.

Linzi is to be moved this weekend. She told mom that she has it all covered. They are moving out of the residence in in Sacto and into a ground level apt not far from the center of town again. Its a four plex with a little garden. They have nixed their car purchase after getting the dealer down to 100 dollars above invoice. They were ticked that it took three and half hours and they wanted them to sign a statement that they were not promised something that was not provided at the time. This was not the case as they had agreed to a detailing of the car and it was not going to happen. Hell hath no fury.....The dealer wanted to tear up the agreement and it was fine by Linzi and Sean. She made a big scene on the way out the door.. Watch out for that slow burning Scot and the Irish temper! Add to it the Italian husband.. ooh
