Day 14
I spent the morning paying bills and balancing the books...my most favorite thing ever (insert sarcasm here). It sucks to do but feels so good when everything balances to the penny! Yes, I'm that girl. :)
After this we headed over to our 24 Day Challenge. I got to caulking and painting the new columns and touching up the front of the house. Dave installed the shutters and went to work priming and glossing the shed, which he finished in the dark. :)

Here's some pics of the beautiful shed doors he made before being painted...

I painted the front door a beautiful red - but realized that even though
Dave was able to fill in a lot of the dents and dings, there were a ton
more we didn't see before that were highlighted by the glossy red. I
hate we spent the time on it but that's just what happens sometimes! We
actually have an extra exterior door in storage that we bought for
Pocahontas but didn't use it...so alas, crisis averted! We didn't have
to spend any extra dough on another door. :) This makes me happy! And
the red is beautiful so at least we know the new door will look
phenomenal!
We ended the night by taping down paper over the tile floors we are keeping so Dave could start spraying paint on the cabinets, vanities, ceilings, trim, and doors in the morning. Our granite is being installed Saturday so the cabinets and vanities need ample time to dry tomorrow...
"Where there is no vision, the people perish."

...10 days and counting...
Day 15
I spent all day painting the exterior shed walls gray and finished all but a wee bit. Dave finished spraying the vanities and cabinets so we are ready for granite, and he almost finished all the trim, ceilings, doors, and closets. Our carpet guy came and pulled measurements and we heard from our granite guy that we are still a-go for tomorrow's install. Looking forward to seeing it and putting more pieces of the puzzle together! I will post pics tomorrow...
