... and here we are... bathroom shower tile work still on hold...

flooring completed Friday, yesterday, so, no floor installation necessary today...

0800hrs, now that it is daylight... notice a BUNCH of problems...
- previous workers, e.g., the demo crew, the hot mop dude and
    the tile setter, put down drop cloths all the way from the
    front door to their work area; the flooring installers did
    NOT use any drop cloths, and, now there is thinset or grout
    from the bedroom door, all the way down the hall, through the
    family room, across the new vinyl flooring in the living room
    and in the entry...
- the hall...

and now that it is daylight... notice a BUNCH of transgressions
    against Monday/Tuesday's paint job...
- the installers were told paint was applied to the walls on Monday/
       Tuesday before they started work on Wednesday
- recall the tile cutting saw setup on Thursday's photos with
        visqueen taped to the walls...
- - that did not seem to hurt the 2 day old paint job
- TV cable taped to the wall to be out of the way...
- - that did not seem to hurt the 2 day old paint job

Well... we'll see what the painter has to say on Moonday...
- today and tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday: continue to move
    some stuff back that wont be in the way on Monday...

- - Saturday, Capital Flooring was interested in out feed back, viz.,
    floor looks outstanding, but, wish installers had
    used drop cloths and not chipped the paint in places.
- - Capital Flooring recommended a wet rag to correct most thinset
    and/or grout splatter on walls and throughout house...
    that worked!
- - Spartan accomodations this weekend, but, can lay flat on matress...
