Can paint lift my spirit up?

Yes it does!! It looks better in the bathroom though...

Sunday morning.....Dimanche matin

It's a beautiful day, the sky is blue, 19F & sunshine.

Here is a sample of the granite, the doors handles & pulls

------------------------------------------------------

Belle journee, le ciel est blue. -4C ensoleille.

Voila un echantillon du granit avec les poignees des armoires.

We called it a day....La journee est terminee

This is what I look like with grey hair.....after sanding the ceiling...we finally tile the tub, exchange the light colored one and put a new one for the dish soap.....and this is our ghost kitchen.

--------------------------------------------------Voila a qui je ressemble avec des cheveux gris apres avoir sable le plafond.....Nous avons termine la ceramique autour du bain, echance la claire et remplace une autre pour installer le savonnier......et voila notre cuisine fantome.

Done....Fini

Just to give you an idea how it will look

eventually

Pour donner une idee pour le futur resultat.

Almost noon...Presque midi

It's getting there.......Ca s'en vient

It's coming....Ca s'en vient

Today is the day!!!....Aujourd'hui c'est le jour "J"

Between 8 & 9AM the installation will start....I can't wait to get my diningroom back....

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Entre 8 & 9 AM l'installation va commence...J'ai hate de revoir ma salle a diner.

First coat....1ere couche

This is it......first coat is on...I have to wait to see if Nick likes it

--------------------------------------------------------------

Ca y est....la premiere couche est terminee....je dois attendre de voir si Nick aime la couleur

Primer...Couche de fond

It doesn't look like much but I sand the walls and gave a coat of primer.....paint is coming
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ca a l'air de rien mais j'ai sable les murs et donne une couche de fond.....la peinture s'en vient.

Xmas Eve.....Veille de Noel

The before & After......Avant & Apres

Electricity is finished.....L'electricite est terminee

Well it is finally over.....The only thing left is the clean-up....it is a mess but I am so glad that cleaning will be a blessing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tout est termine......Il ne reste qu'a faire le menage....tout est a l'envers et poussiereux mais nettoyer va etre un bienfait.

The biggest loser finale through the noise of the work being done in the kitchen

This is hilarious...John did not came but J D did...Do not try to understand them......but as long as the work gets done that's a +....The electricity will be completed before Xmas I was told.....we'll see.
-----------------------------------------
C'est comique........John ne s'est pas presente mais J D est venu....Ne pas chercher a les comprendre.....mais tant que le travail se fait c'est deja ca.......L'electricite va etre complete avant Noel m'a ete dit....on verra bien.

Tuesday no snow.....Mardi pas de neige...

J D never showed up but the tiles for the kitchen floor are in. John is supposed to come finish the plumbing this afternoon.
----------------------------------------------------
J D n'est jamais venu mais j'ai ete cherche la ceramique pour le plancher de cuisine. John doit venir cet apres-midi finir la plomberie.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------Well, 8:30 AM, J D showed up and started to change the electric panel and the meter outside.

5:00 PM everything is almost done, we have power back and the heater is on......lucky it wasn't that cold today. He will be back tomorrow to continue to hook up the rest and do the wiring in the bathroom and kitchen. Sounds good...one step at the time we will get there.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bien, 8:30 AM, J D est arrive et commence a changer le panneau electrique et le meter dehors.

5:00 PM presque tout est termine, on a du courant et la fournaise se fait aller, une chance qu'il ne faisait pas trop froid aujourd'hui. Il revient demain apres son travail pour continuer a joindre tous les fils, faire le filage pour la salle de bains et la cuisine. Prometeur....un pas a la fois on va y arriver.
