Time for tea.

I spent the morning looking over financials....let me just say that it would be nice to move in soon and stop paying rent.

My contractor has come and gone for the day. But the floor guy and helper (painter) were busy working on the bedroom floor.

There was light rain going on today, so after a quick check in with my veggies I headed to the basement. I am thinking through the dimensions of the cold room, access door, vents...

Things are bit cleaner down here as a load was taken off to the dump. My builder has helped me construct a somewhat environmentally sensitive house, but he has work to do with respect to building site behaviours... Recycling what can be, the crew using reusable containers, (I have seen so many Timmies cups..), and waste of little stuff like screws, staples. I should add that I was never informed how many spindles were needed and I stained probably 100 more than necessary- albeit my contractor said he would buy them back. I am sure there is other waste I am not aware of. 

Anyhow the basement looks better.

I was inside when I could hear drips.... Hmmmm.. A look outside revealed a small issue.

... For the money I paid!....

Shortly after I could hear the floor crew packing up, so I headed up to see what else had been done.

I should note the den is still halfway done, but a bit more of the thinset is down where a little carpet had been sitting.

Looks like three more rows for the bedroom completion.

My contractor called me as I was staring at the floor. He said he will be by tomorrow to assist. They have to put in the second sensor and pull up all the wires to the box, before finishing off the floor.

It will be the electrician, when he comes back to finish off all the outlets, that actually connects the wires from the floor to the ones in the box.

Meanwhile outside despite the rain... My sunflower is so close to fully opening up!

Before I left the site I snipped off some lettuce and chives for dinner.... 

And some orange mint for tea.
