1st Floor Drywall continues...
Rich and Matthew have been hard at work installing ceiling board & wall board on the 1st floor... lots to do yet...
I've cut the piece of Ditra for the guest bath. Tomorrow I will apply thin set to the Ditra.
Found some good "how to" videos for installing tile. Posted them on the right column.

On to the 1st floor
Drywall continues... now for the 1st floor.
Rich had to move the plumbing in the 1st floor bathroom to accommodate the vanity. Then he started looking at walls... with his "drywall" eyes.
Twisted studs... yup... got to replace one or two.

Finished putting up drywall in laundry room!
Met with the cabinet maker today to go over his drawings. We spent a couple hours together going over everything.
Here's what he's making for us:
-kitchen cabinets
-cabinets in the desk area within the kitchen
-pantry cabinets
-laundry room cabinets
-master bath vanities (his/hers) and make-up area
-boy's bath vanity
I was amazed when he said that he could have it all done in 2 1/2 to 3 weeks! Wow!
We finished putting up the drywall in the laundry room and I put a first coat of mud on all the nail holes... still need to do seaming and corners.
Put up 2 pieces of ceiling board in the boy's bathroom.
