Kitchen progress

Not a lot of physical progress, but several conversations with the contractor, Betsy.

( Backer board for the floor tile... )

Contractor's Monday call also included that they'd like to start painting, and did I have my colors picked out. I pointed out that the sheetrock patching wasn't completed yet, and it hadn't been sanded, but this was shrugged off. However, the last big hole in the sheetrock got patched yesterday, and the rougher of the other patches were improved on. They are now supposed to sand it tomorrow--must remember to turn off the A/C, so as to not get that dust all through the ductwork.

( Paint brands.... )

( ...and bookcase construction details )

I rather dread next week when I'll be in Portland on a business trip, and trying to deal with this stuff remotely...
