    we finnaly got our dsl hook-up for our home pc yesterday afternoon....now the phone doesnt work. lol. i hope to download some pics for you guys in the next day or so. the last few days we have been installing shelving for the entire house, closets, linen closets and the new pantry. we're almost finished. i've spent close to $500 on the shelving and hardware. i also bought 225' of 3/4 round toe molding. i opted for the white pvc which was about $25 more than the wooden molding but its alot straighter and maybe i wont have to paint except for touch-up/nails.....hopefully. the wife hung some curtains and is keeping the pool clean for us. it still doesnt feel like "home" yet but i guess it will take some time. i dont want to think about all the landscaping and fence repair yet to do.

    Ohmigawd...this would be the farthest thing from my mind at this point after the past 8 months of work you've done!

    Okay, I can see the fence repair because of the pool, but the landscaping would wait until next spring!

    Can't wait to see the pics!

    some granite, first in the master bath. its your generic Santa Cecilia. looks good with the Brown Suede paint scheme, oak vanity and Roman Gold floor tile.

    next is the kitchen granite, Giallo Platinum, and its friggin awesome!
