We had the shower enclosure glass company measure to replace glass in two windows where the double pane seal has leaked and fogged them up. The guy came Friday and after awhile proclaimed the replacement glass was 5/8s and we need 1/2 or vice versa. Can't anything be done right? So now we have to wait again!
We really want to take off next Sunday but can template, granite installation, new window glass all get done in a week's time? Stay tuned to the Perils of Pauline (aka Donna) to find out! We have already resigned ourselves to having the bathroom painting done when we return. Such is life.
Saturday was quiet. I spoke to my sister by phone and worked some on our family reunion for 2019. Of course we went to church in the afternoon and then out for dinner.
Ted's eyesight seems to be doing fine but his pupil is still very small. We put in drops three times a day and will see the doctor on Thursday.
Sunday we went to Irene's to play cards. She is still not able to get out so we keep going to her. I took fruit and made a dip to go with it. There were three other couples invited and we played cards too. Ted won, I didn't.
Monday I cleaned while Rhoomba ran around doing her thing. I talked Irene into getting one since she can't vacuum and she loves it! I love mine too. I can dust while she cleans and then Wetjet the wood floors behind her. Now we just need to figure out something for the bathrooms!
The template was made for our granite on Tuesday. Fingers crossed!
Ted's pupil is less constricted and his eyesight is fine he says. Not shooting for two weeks is being a little hard on him but the doctor said no quick head turns.
We did nothing of particular interest on Wednesday. The saw broke at the fabricators so a Friday installation looks iffy. However, Saturday would still allow us to leave Sunday. I don't know about the contractor putting in the faucets though. It will be last minute to advise him we are ready. He still is unhappy with us for refusing the wrong granite but that is just too bad. We custom built a 4 bedroom, 3 bath pool home in Florida and never had a disagreement with the builder. And believe me when I say you have no idea how many decisions you have to make down to what plug do you want to work off the wall switch by the door. We even had the builder, his superintendent and their wives for dinner when all was said and done. I don't think it is us who are out of line.
I went to WW Thursday morning and am now down 34 lbs. with 6 to goal! Ted went to the doctor and has 20/20 in his right eye but will need power 200 readers for close work. The fabrication of our granite was being done and we were promised Friday installation.
The two fellows were 15 minutes early Friday morning and got right to work on our installation. It took almost 4 hours. We were happy with the result but in all honestly I am not sure it isn't Dallas White and not Ornamental Light! Everyone I talk to has a granite story.
