Work being done on the Condo

These are some of the Pictures of the work being carried out on the condo. We are getting the place painted this week and Kitchen and Bathroom tiled so once it is all done I will post the finished pictures.



Picture of our Carpenter Brian working on the counter top and reinforcing the frame and adding some dividers and shelves to the kitchen sink unit.


Picture of the construction site as everything is torn up at the same time. The air was blue with the saw dust and the fire alarm went off several times you can still smell the saw dust a little bit that will go when it is warmer out side and the windows can be opened. We had the walls and floors washed down by Trevor. He did a really good job of cleaning the place for us.

Picture of the pantry being built off the kitchen and a door and frame being put in where there was only concrete block before.


Picture of yours truly in the mirror showing difference of the Bathroom vanity and oak mirrored shelve with pewter bathroom light and taps as opposed to the 4 ft neon. I do apologize for not spending any time reading other blogs lately and I really miss that but with all the confusion going on. I will get back to your corner of the blog a sphere shortly. Thank you.

Beast- you are quick off the mark. Yes you can see the lake from all the windows. If you look at the previous post through the snow storm the lake is there.

DAD, there is a weird red schlong on your picture of yourself in the mirror in the last image.

WHAT IS THAT ALL ABOUT?

By trevor, I assume you mean helen and john's youngest?

And who is Brian? is he eligible? (I may have ordered, but I like looking at the menu)

The Old Tarf said...

Mermaid- I am surprised at you!!!!

That is a paint handle in a can of paint. Anyone can see that. Never noticed it before. LOL

Yes it is helen and john's Trevor.

Brian is a local carpenter and he is single. He is hand building a 15 foot boat in his spare time out at his home on the ocean shore in the community of Prospect.

It looks chaotic but in a fun sort of way. Well, vaguely fun. I hate dust in the air.

Let's hear more about Brian then. Even I am interested now!

Brian looks as though he is related to Mickey Mouse..do all Canadians have big red shiny ears?

The Old Tarf said...

Lillith- I think that maybe correct, we all seem to have a connection with red shiny things.

Trubes said...
