I did not intend this blog to be about our house, but the issues seem to be pressing and distracting. Overall I would say the remodeling is therapeutic. Lev (Leo) Tolstoy advocated physical labor to complement spiritual development. A weak link ,but healthy nonetheless. Anyway as a Project Manager, we have the critical path in a project schedule. Well, next week (Thanksgiving week) we planned to have our hardwood floors done. However, we found out everyone - at this point 4 vendors are unusually booked and could start in January. We need to vacate this apartment by end of November. So I am going to try one room by myself and see how it turns out. Actually I had a conversation with a friend and the counsel seems to be wise for our situation. I do not want to try to schedule a vendor for 1500+ square feet after we move in. Since I stripped and waxed many a floor in the Army, I am going to take a risk for doing a the job. If successful, I will save about $3k and if not I may be out a few hundred dollars. I am a risk taker.
