Long Weeked

Doesn't look like too much, but all of the subfloor is done (pending some plumbing work).
For the near future, that is how my kitchen will look.  The cabinets are actually in the correct loction for my plan, including the sink.

I'm dead set on DIY'ing the kitchen cabinets, and the only ones I can find with the DIY configurability I want are Ikea, however I found out last week that Ikea is changing their whole kitchen like in February, and the new system won't be compatible with the old.  Part of the reason to use Ikea, is that in 10 years, if/when styles change, I can just pop down to Ikea for new doors and hardware as needed.  Also, Semihandmade does very nice faces for Ikea.  So, I'm stuck with this until February when the new Sektion stuff comes out.

Here is a shot from the reverse side.  The drywall piece there is the last one that goes in the half bath, awaiting some plumbing work before I can hook it up.
Speaking of which I also finished the subfloor in the half bath
Which for now is mostly storage.  I also put the new window in the master bedroom, replacing the one that didn't fit.

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower.  1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan.  Tested and approved by the inspector.  Next is upper pan and then tile.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it.  This will look good once the flooring is installed.

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath.  Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down.  Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad.  Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat.  Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish.  Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.
