End of Week 8

The countertops were installed this afternoon and look beautiful!

Colonial Gold granite with an ogee edge.

Now we wait for the backsplash tile that I just found out today won't be in until September 12. In the meantime, I may cut shelf liner for the cabinets and drawers that won't be disturbed during the final electrical step. That way I at least can start restocking the kitchen.

All the waiting is really getting old. Plus, late last week, I learned the shutters won't be ready for 6-8 weeks, which puts us into late October. At this point, I'm just praying we don't have to make reservations for Thanksgiving!
