4th of July Holiday and kids going to sleepaway Camp Toccoa on Sunday took up most of the activity lately. Sheetrockers finished putting up and beginning finish mudding. With the daily rains (wettest summer in history I believe), it was too humid for mud to dry as they'd hoped. That meant they finished on Monday the 8th - same day we got called from Camp saying Deacon had already fallen and broken off part of each of his two front teeth. The fun continues.
Thought they'd be done over the weekend but gave an extra day to schedule Gabriel to do the hardwoods starting Tuesday. He said he'd be in and out by 1pm, so I scheduled Peter to startbathroom tile at 1pm. Turns out they weren't as fast as they'd hoped and ended up doing floors until 4 due to running short of wood. Peter still showed up and worked on building the shower pan. That was all he hoped to accomplish on this first day back to work after his anniversary cruise.
While Gabriel and Peter were stepping over each other upstairs, Arvydas was working on the chimney building it up 3 feet to meet code. He had a small crew helping get that job done but was done by
early afternoon.
In this one short day we had a Romanian doing the flooring, Polish tiler, Lithuanian chimney, & Mexican bricklayers all at our house at the same time. Quite the international affair I'd say.
