Floor tile, paint, and (gasp) Race Schedules

The kitchen is moving along. Lots of changes in the last week. Kitchen floor tile is in and grouted. The window trim is about 30% done, and could be finished today or tomorrow. The cabinets are to arrive today, and are set for install tomorrow. YEAH! Next week the electrician is back to wire up the appliances and whatnot. The radiant heat guy will be by next week to install the new baseboard units. The granite gets measured early next week, and should be set for install the following week. Lastly, the plumber will be back (after the granite is in) to hookup the fixtures, toilets, etc. So its all coming together. Rumor is.. a functional kitchen by the 28th.

The upstairs bathroom is getting the last coats of paint. Jodie will be doing tile install in the coming days. After we install the vanity and vanity top, then all thats left will be for the plumber to install the fixtures. So that will be done very soon.

On a completely different note.. The 2008 race schedule will likely be lighter than 2007. Especially with a chunk of summer being dedicated to adoption related activities. Triathlons are going to be the odd man out probably. I hope to compete in my 5th local hometown tri, and my 4th Chicago Accenture. Not sure yet. I have already registered for the Great Western half marathon in Early May, and for the 2008 Chicago Marathon. There is a new 1/2 marathon in the local area that I'll probably register for (Especially since the course literally goes about 1 block from our house). So keep an eye on the blog, soon, I'll be updating the race links on the right side.

Peace to all this Lenton Season
