Overload

Whoa! Things are starting to get a little crazy around here. The good news is that all of our flooring has been installed! Yay! New carpet, tile and wood laminate flooring is in place and ready to be walked on! :)

The countertops finally arrived today and they look fantastic. Now we just need to officially install them. We also had Modernistic out to clean the "1" room that we actually kept the carpet in (the girls room) and I swear that it looks brand, spanking new. Nifty.

All the new appliances arrived yesterday as well and are waiting to be installed. We still had to run a water line to the fridge for the ice maker and water dispenser. We also needed to run a new gas line for the stove and re-connect the water lines for the sink (which we still need to purchase-oops) and the dishwasher. The microwave also needs to be installed, which will take a little work, but nothing we can't handle.

We are getting down to the little things, like blinds, outlets, ceiling fans, trim painting, touch-ups, quarter-round molding in the kitchen and foyer, grout, and some of the bathrooms. They are all things that we can work on once we are actually living there.

So, the big moving day is this Saturday and I am more nervous about that than you can even imagine. God only knows what's hiding behind the couch, under the piano, or in my sock drawer. I just hope that our family and friends understand that life has been hectic and I really am sorry in advance for any messes that might be found in the moving process. At least I can say that the new house is clean! Well, mostly clean....ish.... :)
