More pics and what not

Not gonna lie, the past 2 days were very relaxing without painter lady here. But, the flip side of that is the stuff isn't getting done.  She's back today with her hubby. Finally painting the door on our shop that was supposed to be done last summer. DH puts together little videos/pictures of each stage and picks out a song to go with (or sometimes he asks the sub what song he likes). Last night he says oh, geez, what song would I use for her? As I'm about to drift off to sleep last night I said "Painter Lady's song is Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne". HAHA.  My ideas this morning were Lunatic Fringe and Working 9 to 5 (because you know.....she doesn't....).

DH pretty much helped finisher guy with the tiling the last 2 days, which he kind of enjoyed. Learned to cut tile. They literally had one plank of tile left when he got done!



The last picture is the dog wash in the mud room. Today he is supposed to start grouting.

I actually woke up feeling rested this morning (probably what 2 days of less stress will do for ya!). Let's just hope it sticks now.

DH's dad not doing well again. DH has tried to call him past several days, but no answer and he called back yesterday and I answered (DH was out in house) and he said he's just really been having trouble breathing and will call DH when he can talk better :(  He said he's been having trouble since last Sunday....well last Sunday SIL and family had him go out to lunch at a super busy/noisy restaurant and probably half hour drive each way. I'm sure that probably really wore him out. And he's  probably stressing out over his house sale, as it didn't close because apparently the day before closing it was determined the buyer has a lien they have to resolve.

It is supposed to be a totally sunshiney day today. It's all cloudy and both the weather apps on my phone are still saying sun. I wanted sun today.

  1. Sorry about your FIL. I was hoping that he would start living at some nice place with lots of care and comfort by now. Hope, the lien gets resolved soon.

    1. We were hoping too. He had 10 offers on his house, so hopefully his agent found another buyer quickly, but again, closing still takes time. DH hasn't even gotten to talk to him at all this past week to find out what is going on with it.

  2. Oh my goodness I love that tiling. If I can afford it I want to get both my bathrooms done when my central heating is replaced (same person will do both) and that is exactly the look I want! And I agree with TPol, it must be very stressful for your FIL. Poor guy. I hope it gets sorted soon.

    1. I've seen wood look tiling on sale at Lowe's quite often for like .99 sq ft. I don't think it's something I'm going to get tired of, either.

  3. I'd love to hear what your dh comes up with for the painter lady. What a neat way to journal your house build! Is he still using his drone much, or is that more of a summer thing?

    The tile is super classy! The dog wash will save you from a lot of muddy floors.

    I hope your FIL gets this all resolved soon. He shouldn't be dealing with this stuff, especially given his poor health.

    1. He hasn't been using the drone too much lately, since all the work is inside now. DH still hasn't been able to talk to his dad in over a week now. He doesn't answer or call back and SIL is still too busy being butthurt to let DH know how he's doing.
