Another productive weekend is behind us. Although, we both did take it a bit easier this weekend. The next step for us is the floor, which we have decided to do next weekend (well, Randy decided) because I will be out of town and can take the dogs with me. I guess you aren't supposed to have anyone/dog walk on the floor for 72 hours. So being gone allows the time to do the floor with out an extra 8 feet in the house.
Anyhoo-over the week Randy cut and laid out the backer board (HardyBacker) so it was ready to go today. He mixed up the thin set, which the first batch turned out to be pretty thick, thin set, despite following directions. We managed to lay the backer board in the laundry room and just a bit into the kitchen before we ran out of thin set. We then had to put screws in it as well, which earned us both some blisters on our hands.
Also did some touch up painting. Last week when the tape was pulled down, it took some of the paint with it. So we had to fix that up as well. Hopefully no more painting!
I included pictures of the kitchen from the usual vantage point as well as a close up of the laundry room floor. Sure doesn't look that exciting, but boy was it a lot of work!
