| We have floors! |
After a what seemed like an endless summer, the builders are finally back to work on our house. It is amazing how slowly things go at this stage. Where it took mere days to lay foundations and raise the roof, finishings like floor coverings and paint seem to take forever.
We are now just a few weeks away from our move-in date and I am trying to keep the faith. So much remains to be done that it will take a minor miracle – and I gave up religion years ago. So I am doing a lot of deep yoga breathing and practicing my new mantra, “Ho-ome”...

So let's focus on the positive. The walls are (mostly) painted and the floors almost done. Although we have gone with white paint pretty well everywhere, we broke down and decided to give the floors, wall tiles and window treatments some colour, albeit neutrals.
The bathroom tiling is nearly complete, although we still have no fixtures other than a bathtub....

Downstairs will have a tiled shower stall (so far we have tiles but no shower)

| Nothing but the kitchen sink (rough in) |
And in the kitchen, "il n'y a plus qu'à..."
Any bets on whether we'll have running water and electricity?
