Devilish details

It's said the devil (or god) is in the details. The last few days has been chockablock with details. Details include:
  • The travertine tile purchased from Home Depot was returned, and our lovable contractor tracked down the precise make to the existing tile.
  • Granite has been sourced that perfectly matches the existing island in the kitchen, which is needed around the cooktop.
  • The leaking roof over the master bedroom has been reshingled; perfect timing since it's now raining.
  • Push plates arrived today, which are a hopeful match to the current door handle. 
  • Exede satellite Internet service ordered, and will be installed on Friday.
  • Solar array installer returning to inspect the upgrades, and revise his quote on Monday.
  • Starting the laborious task of changing my address with every organization, system, and tree in the universe.
  • The new stairs and handrails in the entryway are coming together beautifully. Presently, the main wood support posts are being installed, and next the handrails. The new stairs and existing oak flooring in the living room will be stained darkly to match the cork flooring's color.
  • Radiant heat wire and another thermostat ordered for the master bathroom and the family room heating systems.
  • Move-in day might be down to a week or two!
