3rd electrical panel inspection

Today we had our third electrical panel inspection. I once again tried to get the same guy we had last time and was unable to. A third guy came out today. The problem with different inspectors is that each one can give you a whole new list of things the first ones didn't find. We had to get one thing inspected 4 times. So, I was somewhat nervous when yet another guy was coming out today. I just didn't know how much longer I could keep the electric company at bay. Fortunately we passed and the city will let the electric company know that all if fine for them to re-meter us.

I did some more tiling today, and I cannot believe how slow it is. I laid 36 tiles that were each 12"x12" over the last two days. It takes anywhere from 15-30 minutes to lay one tile and get it level. I'll be glad later though when the floor is done right. It is a real sense of accomplishment. The only tiles left in this area are ones that have to be cut, so we'll do those over the next few days after we can walk on the the ones I've laid already.

Things are looking good for the plumber to come on Friday. That's the big push right now is to be ready for them and get a functioning bathroom. I've fought so much with the plumbers already I think they'd kill me if I postponed them now.


Here is my two days worth of tiling. The door is a side door in the kitchen. The back wall will have cabinets housing the water heater, pantry cabinets and washer/dryer.






Here is the bath tile with the tub deck and face done and the first row of wall tiles. The wall tiles are square glass tiles. The tub deck and face are green "subway" tiles that are laid like bricks.
