Of course there had to be at least one major screw up (I'm not talking about scheduling delays, etc), but just plain dumb design mistakes.
I went to look at the progress this morning and--POW--it hit me right in the face when I saw the bathroom: the showerhead was in the completely wrong place! It's supposed to be an OVERHEAD rain shower fixture, NOT a normal sidewall showerhead. Big mistake. I have no idea if this is easy to fix or not. I
do know that it will require running a pipe to the overhead position and retiling all those tiles along the way. UGH. But it has to be done, this is just plain silly. As the saying goes, "what were they thinking?"

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. |
Otherwise more progress to report: Things are still not moving as fast as I would like (they never do), but it IS moving ahead. They have a LOT to do next week before the furniture arrives but I'm trying not to worry about it at this point. Something tells me though that I will have moved in but there will still be workers coming in and out the first week or so. Sigh.
