After church this morning I went to the clubhouse for an HOA meeting on the budget for the year. There were only two other people there and no one from the board of directors. I met a nice lady from the neighborhood and we chatted for 15 minutes and then we all left. Later today we get an email from the Property manager, who by the way never seems to be working, and she said that there was some unforeseen issue and that they would reschedule for tomorrow.
Then over to the house to meet with the window treatment lady. Yesterday she showed me some Hunter Douglas vertical cellular shades for the sliders as well as normal ones for the windows. The quote came back about three times what I thought it should be. Today she came back with a different line of shades so I am waiting for her quote which she said would be more affordable. Then Mike, our builder, came by and we discussed mirrors for the bathrooms, towel bars, etc. We were going to put in a whole house water filter but the only place it can go is outside by the front entrance and would be too ugly and I am sure never approved by the HOA. So we are putting that on hold for now. When they painted the trim and doors, I questioned the color but we thought since the lights were not in that it looked ivory and the color on the paint can said it was the right color. So today the paint company owner was there at the house with us and he said he painted a little board and took it to Sherwin Williams along with the paint and told them they must have mixed it wrong. This paint company works almost exclusively for our builder and they use the same white all the time. The paint company admitted the formula on the paint can was wrong and that is why the color is wrong. It is not bad in the bedrooms, but in the kitchen next to the white cabinets it looks terrible. He said they would make it right and so on Saturday they will cover everything again in plastic and spray the correct color. So impressed with this builder and the people he works with. The closet people did the master closet and will be back for the laundry room cabinets. Appliance install crew came at 4:30 and we have the fridge, oven, and microwave drawer installed. They will be back for the dish washer, cook top and vent hood after the electrician is there tomorrow. I will post some pictures on the Reno Page. Friday I am off to find towel, closet light. TP holders ect. A week from Saturday our Bed and mattress arrive. Comast comes on Sunday to connect the cable TV. Hopefully.
