Tiling and painting

After we returned from Julian, the house was a mess, with new drywall patches everywhere.  KR started to paint and paint and paint....  First it was the downstairs bedroom.  We could not figure out what paint we had used where so we just mixed new colors.  The pumpkin wall is still not painted as we don't have that color and the patch is behind my sewing machine so I said just to leave it.

Then the tiler guy Felipe comes on Saturday and seal the walls with this red stuff that everyone uses and we don't see him for another week.  In the meantime mom's bathroom got started, with new paint, new medicine cabinet and all the fixtures got removed.  I have not decided what to put back so in the mean time I made these funny toilet paper holders that attaches to the shower doors.  I didn't want to put the old toilet paper holder back on they looked so cheesy.  We shall wait til Lovely get here to decide what to put back.

We go to Lowe's to buy the tiles and more paint, and more tiles and more paint.....

Felipe finally comes back and start tiling, then grout, then sealing, then Shawn for the hardware fixture, and KR finished painting the boys' bathroom.  Sort of this light bluish gray color.  Very nice.

Then it is the shower curtains.  I found that the set DIGNITET system from IKEA I liked so I ordered from Amazon, didn't want KR to fight IKEA.  Should have him gone over to IKEA to get.  One set came but the corner single didn't come yet, and it is Sunday, and I am hoping it would come so that we can get the shower finished before we go on our vacation and Kurt can use his own shower.

Kurt has to work EIGHT HOURS today.......   He said, "Do you know I have to work eight hours today?"  I said, "Most people work eight hours every day, five days a week."  He, I am sure didn't want to hear that.  He went to church on the beach, then put in these USB plugs at grandma's and came home, ate a pizza and went to work.  Will get off at 10 30.  Hopefully will just brush teeth and go to bed.

I got in touch with Dr Denise McDermott, and she had a 90 min intake interview with Em.  She likes Dr M and will be seeing Dr Nicole Pickering who has had good success with OCD.

I had lunch with Diane at Guy-Kaku.  It was delicious.  She gave me little presents.  Diane is so thoughtful, and we need to get together more often.

I have been running about a mile or two a day.  The hip seems to be healing.  KR got hit by his surfboard a few days ago.  A very nice contusion and he is limping a bit.  We better be well for our vacation.  I am packing, and the weather is not cooperating, looks like rain everyday.  But hey, will be warm.
