Wanna see my kitchen? - Page 18

And my attic, too. Photos attached.

Silly question... Have you stood on a chair and tried to push up on the ceiling in various parts of said sagging area to see if there's movement? That would tell you if the sag is new (note: do not try on parts of your spouse! Unless you look good with a black eye)

Okay, on the $455 to the granite co. just send the hilarious post you did on the conversations with the sales lady and the granite co. to sat night live or mad tv and charge them a couple thousand for the skit and you come out ahead. I worked for a company that sold granite counter tops and I cant tell you how many times this type of thing occurs and the salesperson charges the customer for their own screw up to save their commission.

Alright, already, cut out the chatter.....recent pics would be nice Mr. Rainman. Our expectations are elevated beyond what you anticipated when the thread was started. Comeon, pics, pics, pics, the suspense is difficult to take.

Yes, yes. All these words are driving me crazy. We need pictures.

**Rain Man** · 12-15-2006, 07:49 PM

Okay, it's done. Done, done, done. No more hammers, no more hooks. No more plumbers' dirty looks.

Pictures will be arriving soon.

The new chandelier is installed, and it is amazing. I've damaged my corneas staring at it with the lights on.

Just in time for Christmas. Nice job.

**Rain Man** · 12-15-2006, 08:02 PM

Yeah, we overshot the original finish date of September 13th.

Even in the film age they had 1-hour development. What, on Earth, is taking SO LONG!!!!

I hope you are thrilled with the way things have turned out. I'm sure you're thrilled that it's all finished now. Congrats!

**Rain Man** · 12-20-2006, 02:36 PM

Okey-dokey. This isn't the full complement of pictures, but it's a good overview.

This is the new third-floor bedroom, facing the front of the house.
This used to be the old "map room."

**Rain Man** · 12-20-2006, 02:39 PM

Here's the same room, but facing the opposite direction. You can see the new closets, for which we used bamboo curtains instead of closet doors, and you can also see one of the octagonal windows that overlooks the new third-floor balcony. You can also see my pants.

This post is useless without pics.

Just get to the kitchen. Nobody wants to see your bedroom.

**Rain Man** · 12-20-2006, 02:44 PM

Check out the awesome ceiling fan. I love this ceiling fan. It's very Sputnikish.

And by the way, my wife and I are the beautiful people in the baby pictures on the dresser.

Man, if I had a dollar for every time I heard that sentence...

Here's the view of the new balcony, kind of. The rails were the last part of the entire remodel.
