Hi ivy, just read through some of the problems you mentioned, and I do understand that frustration you are/were having.

Well, at least one major thing is off your chest, so hopefully from now on, it would be a smooth "ending ride".

Cheers!! :)

thanks folks. After this morning saga, uncle probably have categorised me under the "handle with care" category. I see a flurry of people whizzing in and out of my place. Glass door folks came to fix my aluminium plate for glass doors, tilers here, workers came to fix handle and little things, ah zhong drop by to ask me whether i got any more problems, ah tan also appear out of nowhere as usual, plumbers came to finish fixing my MBR basin and accessories etc. Uncle soon also update me on status of my kitchen granite top which I give him "license" to wait for available stock for 2 weeks.

the only group missing in action is carpenters. but i got more than enough people "partying" at my place today, so I don't miss them. they can come entertain me tomorrow or next week. ha!

I guess my most stressful stage is over, throughout my reno, nothing is stressful as I usually take things easy except when I a room to be ready to stash all my barangs cos I dun want to pay for warehousing cost anymore mah. now that it is done, uncle and his team can slowly stroll in to touch up here touch up there no problem. :)

yah!! so happy for you.... :dancingqueen: see whether tomorrow you'll be free to pop by PPP....think you'll have lots of cleaning up to do too...

Hmm, no doubt you are not in a hurry, I think it is better to set a deadline for them to complete.

You never what other "excuses" that they might have up their sleeves wor... :unsure:

So, look at your calender and set a date 吧! :)

actually nothing much from uncle's side le. now is mostly carpentry. they need to re-laminate certain things and my MBR wardrobe glass doors, ah wei replace a new set for me cos the first set could not acheive the effect i want. Actually i felt bad about the doors cos initially when i wanted to do it my way, Ah Wei already warned that the effect may not be good.. but i insisted them to try.. and true enough lor he was right... quite glad that he actualy willing to replace it for me.. nv ask me to top up.. Carpentry team promised to finish all touching up by next week.

Uncle's side only main door handle, today they came, screw too short, ah zhong will buy and fix it for me within next few days. Kitchen awaiting stock for granite top, then stainless steel backing can be up (this will take 2 weeks). Final stage is to smoothen some pimples on wall and touch up paint. that's it!

I wonder how soon it'll be that the novelty will wear off and they'll be cramping into our queen size bed again...

After plonking in the 2 beds.. the room looks pretty cramp now.. i may have to relocate the mini side table in between the 2 beds to make way for more walking space..
