It's week 8. Two months have passed. Things are progressing well. But the bad weather nowadays does take its toll on the speed of work done.
On Friday I took Linda over to the house to measure the space for curtains. And today, we actually just came back from choosing tiles, again. The ones that we chose earlier for the wall at the kitchen cabinet is out of stock. I then selected an earth colour theme - little tiles of beige, light orange, light brown design. They do look nice but Miqdam said they look quite dark and dull for a kitchen. But that's the only option based on the budget we have - RM4.80 per square feet. Miqdam then looked around, all the while doing some mental calculations. He then pointed to another set of little tiles and asked me to select. I told him those costs more than double - RM12.80 per square feet, no way. But he said, "tak apa, nanti Miq rasa tak seronok nak pasang kalau Ateh pilih yang tadi". So, I pun pilih lah colour combo of red, orange and white - very ceria colours. Baik anak sedara aku ni!
Anyway, work now have progressed to placing the tiles. Sekarang baru lah nampak macam rumah...
Tile work completed at the back room - which will be PS2 room for Hubby and Aliyah. We selected tiles that look like wood but they didn't turn out looking close as wood. But still OK lah.

Tiles at the kitchen dah 80% siap. We chose beige but bila dah pasang nampak macam white lah pulak. Tiles work in mysterious ways. But made the kitchen looks so big. The concrete kitchen top pun dah siap but not tiled yet.

Tadi at the tile shop, I also selected some earth colour stones for the wall at that pipe. I thought since I wanted to put batu sungai at the space below where the water falls, I might as well cover up the wall with something exotic too sebab nanti wall tu berlumut pulak kena air. It'll be only 2' x 3'.

Work at the porch has started. They have covered the 2 patches of grass and the whole place will be tiled.
