Thursday & Friday July 22 & 23, 2010

Thursday

The contractor was here early this morning to have a look at the deck. George, the contractor had left early yesterday as he wasn't feeling well leaving his son and another fellow to finish up so he was here to see what kind of a job they did and also to stain the deck. We also had him change the locks on both doors. When George's son was putting the locks in this morning he told us that his Dad is 80 years old and still able to swing a sledge hammer.

Bath Fitter arrived mid morning and proceeded to get our tub and tub wall installed. It took about six hours but looks wonderful! Now I can't wait to get the new vanity in!

I also got an email from our Immigration lawyer this morning advising that he's working on something right now that will take him to the end of next week and after that he will work solely on our case. Wish us luck!

We went out for sunset again this time at Lower Reach Park which is just down the road from us.




Friday

Today was another busy day. George, our contractor came by and started doing some of the little things that I wanted done. He changed the weatherstripping on the back door (it was in very bad shape), took the back door down ready to paint, painted the door jamb and also the side door to the garage. We were going to paint it red but he was already painting it black by the time I got home. It was black originally so that's ok.

I went out to get groceries so he could have done other things and I didn't see him doing them. He has an amazing amount of energy for a man his age.
