So, ya had a bad day............


This week was full of ups and lots of downs. I don't even want to get into it, but I'll sum it up, I'll try to anyway. Lets see I thought this was the week when everything was going to come together, the cabinets are back on, they are painted and they look brand spankin new, love em. The granite was coming and that to me was like the big wow factor. I always wanted grantie and I was just over the top excited. So, Wednesday was the big day, the granite, new sinks, the cable guy was coming to hook all that up, Mr Bill was coming to finish up all the odds and ends. So, I call to find out the time for the granite, they say in the afternoon, the cable guy says in the morning. I thankfully have Mr Bill at the house as I bring the kids to school just in case the cable guy shows up. Well, as I drive away and pick up our carpool friends, I drive by my house and see the granite people there. WHAT? I still had dishes in the sink, ok, I there is nothing I can do, I have to get the kids to school first. So, off I go, quickly... I come home to a piece of granite on one part of the kitchen and the granite guys are gone, Mr Bill says, they'll be back later.

OK, not a problem. The show up not much later and start doing there think, oh yea Mr Bill had to take my dirty dishes out of the sink and put them somewhere, they are on my kitchen table, it was only like 2 bowls, but still like he really needs to deal with my dishes. Sorry, anyway like I said they're doin the granite, and there is one piece missing, here we find out a piece broke, yea, broke. I don't know if they were going to tell me, but they say maybe next week they will be back to finish.

HUH?

NO, I stop my foot, I feel like a spoiled child, I said, NO NO NO, I want it done this week. So, they say alright. They'll be back the next day. I'll get back to that.

Next the cable guy is running behind, he finally shows up around 2pm, looks at the tv, that we just got, and says, is there wires there? I have no idea so I say, you're going to have to take it off the wall, I ask Mr Bill to come help this guy. They try to take the tv off the wall and long story short the cable guy dropped his end of the tv by accident onto the mantel. Yep, John's at work by the way. So, now we are all sick, it broke on the corner, and Mr Bill stood there shaking with these pieces in his hand. This was a total accident, it was a shame. But who is going to call John? I called him and tried to say it kindly, and is there such a thing?

The stair guy is almost finished, this is the new guy, and he is so quiet, you don't even know he is here.

I had to pick up Mirenda from cheerleading clinic (a story in it of itself) come home was her, feed her and gav dinner and go back to the school for some show. So, it was quite the long day.

To sum it all up, the next day the granite guys come back with the granite that they fixed, and was a very visable fix, I did not accept it and that is another story. So, here are some pictures of what has been finished.
