PAINT, PAINT AND MORE PAINT

Well its been a couple of days since my last post. Lots of stuff has been happening. As you can see we have windows now. The framer finished and all the outside soufets are finished. Matt and I spent everyday daylight hour this weekend at the house painting the soufets and overhangs. We finished our second coat about 5 pm. To say the least we are very tired but have an amazing feeling of pride for a job well done. We decided early on to do our own painting. From our research before starting to build we learned that most painters do not use top quality paint but you pay for the top stuff. Some even water down the paint to stretch it out- that way they profit more money. We didn't want that. After some research we decided to use Olmypic Paint that is sold at Lowes. We got the top quality 25 year warranty. It was very expensive but we were told over and over that it was worth the money. The electric is now roughed in. I never quessed how many wires are in a house. Man there is wires in every wall and all over the attic. We are expecting the plumbers to finish more of thier work my Wednesday. Then Armando Paniqua is staining our concrete floors. His business is called King Concrete and he has been by several times to check on the floors and is very easy to work with.
