It's Almost There!

Wow, we have not written since Friday, 9/18. On Saturday morning 9/19, we went to get more floor tiles for the workers. When we came back, Tony tried to put up the range hood and he said that there was no electrical power and it did not work. I was not very happy about this. So, we took the hood and went to the Sunnyvale store and see what we could do while Tony finised the floor. When we got to the store, the lady said that tightened the screw and it would be okay. So, we took the hood back home and told Tony to tighten the screw and it still did not work. At this time, we did not want to ruin the hood so we decided that we will call the Oakland store and ask for service. The service man did not come until this last Monday. It was the screw. It was not long enough to make contact. So, now it is working and awaiting for the range to come.

In the meantime, Allen, our contractor, wanted to us to look for the windows. He gave us the name of the place, Bay City Windows, and the person, Gina, and the kind of windows we should get (Tuschany). So, on Monday, I tried to call Gina. She was one busy woman. I left messages for 2 days and she never called me back. I was a little annoyed. But, on Tuesday, our faucet came in. I was excited and called Allen and told him. So, he came to put in the faucet on Wednesday morning and asked Daddy how was the windows searching going. I wanted Daddy to be there while he put on the faucet. So, Daddy told him that we could not get in touch with Gina. Right the way, he called Gina on the phone and we had an appointment in the afternoon at 2p.m. So, off we went to Fremont. The windows are simple and energy efficient and they look nice. So, we paid and left. They will be here on oct 6. After the window, we decided to go to Home Depot to get our knobs. They are simple ceramic knobs. This kitchen will be finished when the stove and dishwasher come in on 10/10. We cannot wait to see this whole project finished. Oh, remember we told you that Allen was not sure about us ordering an unusual faucet online. After he put the faucet in, I asked how he liked our faucet. He said that he liked it and he might even buy one for himself. It is cool. I have to leave for my annual checkup. So, I will talk to you later. Have a great time this weekend. We wish we could be with you all in Seattle................
