Today the Eastpointe Electric (eastpointeelectric@msn.com) arrived and they're handling all the electric on this job for us and I can't say enough good things about them. Mark had the opportunity to work from home today so was able to go over the placement of the cam lighting with Bill. Unfortunately, they had already started making the holes in the ceiling before Mark could them them know where the placement of the cams needed to be. Bill and his crew just rolled with the punches and didn't even raise an eyebrow. They did save the pieces of the ceiling they cut out so it'll make the patching easier. When I got home tonight it was so nice to see those lights. This is going to be such a nice work area when it's all done. They're moving a number of the plugs and switches so we'll have plenty of outlets for the counters.
Mark & I agree, our countertops aren't going to get cluttered with appliances, you need an appliance, pull it out, use it, wash it, put it away. The coffeemaker (Keurig) and a toaster are the only two items I want on the counters. I might add the lazy susan with the olive oils back but then again, maybe not.
They also got all the "popcorn" off the ceiling in the bath and breezeway. Those ceilings look so good without that stuff on there. After this work is done in the breezeway, I'm seriously going to have to think about repainting it, which means repainting the stairs, which means repainting the bonus room. Ok, so maybe I better rethink this repainting thing.
Of course two of the cats had to check out what's been going on since they've been locked out of the area all day. Milo is just a bit to social and we were afraid he might manage to get out. Mark being the wise one, grabbed the folding screen and put it in front of one of the doorways that was covered by plastic thus eliminating Milo's entrance. We did decide tonight we'll have to close the door to the bonus room locking the cats out of the kitchen area. They're just stubborn enough to try to move the cardboard and get out to the storage area.
