House update again....

2 weeks ago it finally passed inspection for insulation!!!!! It only took 7 trys to get it right.  The building inspector was so furious at them.  (I personally don't blame the guy)  Our building inspector is really AWESOME!!!! and takes alot to get him mad or upset.  I for once sat back and enjoyed the show instead of being in the middle.  Last week they got all the sheet rock in, taped and mudded with some kind of design (brain dead this morning) oh yea textured.. Yesterday me, Paul, Scott and our friend Karen went and picked out the paint colors and the tile for the bathrooms.  Love everything we picked out except for the color for the main bathroom.  It was going to be a blue but we decided a brown would look better.  Not sure how we ended up with a brown themed house, not what we had in mind.  I am finally starting to enjoy the process of picking out and designing new things for the house.  Friday we finally ordered our kitchen cabinets and counter tops!!! That was a nightmare, it only took me an hour to come up with the design and be happy with it.  Don't know why the contractor kept putting us off.  It was a huge headache, we got the ok to order them then the contractor called and canceled them. Georja from Home Depot called me to see if the contractor called us to tell us we were over budget and said no and told her to order them anyways.  We will find room in our budget for the upgrade on the counter tops, we went from laminate to quartz.  Since it is so late in the game on ordering we are not going to be out of our rental home by the end of June :(    I really like the neighborhood but I want to go home.....  After seeing the sheet rock up really made all the rooms smaller then what I thought they were.  Its going to take alot of thinking outside the box to do the boys room and to put in our swamp cooler.  I am finally excited to see all the change in the house!!!!
