Moving???

Seriously are we ready to move??? I can hardly believe the move day is tomorrow. I can't believe how much has gotten accomplished in two weeks. OK, really it's already today as it's 12:45am and I just said good bye to our cleaning lady for the day. Yes, that's right, my dad blessed me with getting someone to come and clean up after all these Reno's before we move all our stuff in. She did a great job dusting and vacuuming everywhere a good once over everything. Ray and Dad were still working around her up until an hour ago doing more baseboards, touch ups and Ray and Jason put the counter top on. Things look great. of course there is still no toilet seats yet, or towel bars but you can't expect all the details to be covered. I wish we had counted how many times we entered home depot this week. A record I would not want to repeat or try to beat. The carpets were lay ed today, baseboards and trim around doors almost finished, all doors have been painted and I learned how to put a handle on (OK it's minor but I had never done it before so I felt like I contributed too and every bit counts right!)counter top on, appliances arrived but not installed (Terry turned the doors around for me on my fridge), taps finally working (only one toilet is leaking otherwise they did amazing with all that plumbing!) I even got my shelf hung in my bedroom which I have wanted to buy for years. One that is high like the top of a door frame from wall to wall to keep books up on displayed yet not taking up too much space.
Anyways, there is no pictures as it is late and I don't feel like staying up to load them on this blog. I hope to put some before and after pictures on tomorrow. Thanks again for all the help in this project. To people like April and Lisa and Trudy who have taken the kids for awhile to let me help or get stuff done, and to all the guys that have helped with all the little and big projects that brought this to completion
