Week 19 Friday

This is a beautiful sight. A truck loaded with sheet rock and insulation. Of course all of this has to be carried up 4 flights of stairs. I hope these guys are young and strong.
It has been a really hectic day from very early this morning. Had to meet with the heating contractor this morning. I am installing a slot ceiling system and when I got to the job I was not happy with their placement. No thought to symmetry at all. Do not turn your back ever.
Shea came by last night to check out my speaker placement for the sound system and did not pass the placement in the den. So now I need to figure out what to do with that room. Back to the drawing room with the AV guys.
Speaking of AV, they are doing my Control 4 system through out the house. When it got down to specing the dimmers things started to get really complicated so much so that they had to have the engineer look at all the lighting. No simple solutions anymore. The new led lighting is really complicated and you have to look at every fixture to make sure that the dimmer will work with it. Glad I don't have to figure all of this out. But I do need to check with my electrician to make sure he is using the proper dimmers in all the other rooms. And then all of these things need to be programmed to talk to each other.
Remind me to have all hands on deck when it is time to learn how to run everything. I'm sure Ralph and I will be in a daze. Need all my techies to keep me on track.
Concrete flooring sample with some of the other finishes going into our house. I'm thinking it is not dark enough so there will be some more samples coming my way.
Problems with my cabinets they want me to split all of the doors on the tall cabinets which I was trying to avoid but they are wearing me down and I don't want to have to deal with sagging doors so I guess I will learn to live with it.
