Friday, 10-23-09 - Moving out of our rental house. It took 2 days, Fri. & Sat. to get everything moved. Huge job!! The first week was just unpacking boxes and reading the books on how to work all the new appliances. (I already knew how to work the tub. :-)On Monday 11-2 the tile man noticed a leak in the living room ceiling around the middle canned light (enlarge the picture and you can see the drops in picture below) and the couch was very wet. Then I noticed the slight bulge in the ceiling to the right of the light. We got our contractor out of bed and he went up into the attic and found the leak from the in-floor heating tubes that run through the ceiling. One of the staples punctured one hole in the tube and a sheetrock guy put a screw into the tube in a second location. The whole crew was here most of the day today (Tue. 11-3) patching the holes and adjusting the heating system. Tomorrow the sheet rock people will remove a big section of the ceiling to help the plywood dry faster then begin the repair work.
Tuesday, 11-3-09 - On a brighter note, the Hunter Douglas Top Down/Bottom Up shades were installed on my bathroom windows this afternoon. They really look great!
Also had mini blinds put up in the multi-purpose room (guest bedroom, art studio, exercise room, craft and scrap booking area). We just bought the bedding for the queen size wall bed and still need to buy pillows, but we're almost ready for company.
