I had a very busy weekend, but it was a nice weekend. I mostly focused on prepping the house for the first floor fireplace tile work that is set to start tomorrow and in running all the errands for the non perishables and liquor needed for the upcoming happy hour I am hosting in early November and the family Thanksgiving. For the latter, I needed to make sure I had enough glassware, drinks, mixers, and a place for everyone to sit! For the former I needed to remove and cap off two sconces and an outlet from the fireplace wall so that the remaining wood panels could be removed and the tile could be installed!
Many thanks to Bryan and Ethan from work for providing me with a refresher on electricity so that I could complete that work. I'm always inordinately proud of myself when I do anything involving electricity or plumbing, even if it is the simplest project. Those concept don't come easily to me.
Tile work starts at 7am each morning, so I'm not sure I'll make it through the entire Eagles game tonight! That means a 5am wake up for the gym to ensure I get everything done in time so that Jason can arrive at 7am and I can start work after he gets settled.
I'm very excited for this project! When I moved into the house almost exactly one year ago, I had many visions for the front room, and they are coming to fruition now!
Here is a very boring album of my electrical projects from the weekend. I'd post pics of my liquor store and glassware run, but that is just embarrassing ;-)
Prepping for Tilework
