Paint, plumbing and electrical

Things are moving briskly this week.
We have gotten the wiring done in the kitchen (new hood, dishwasher and new wall outlet), kitchen plumbing done and the waste pipe removed from the kitchen pantry. Now there is a nice 4 inch hole in the floor LOL!

I originally thought there was some sort of strange dishwasher hook up in the kitchen, but it turns out that there were hot and cold hookups plus a drain for a washing machine - not a dishwasher. Coupled with the kitchen pantry toilet, you have to think someone was living there that was unable to get up or down stairs.

All the wiring in the house has been checked, and with the exception of a couple funny outlets (which were fixed), all looks good and ready to go.

The handyman is coming back in a couple weeks to put in some railings for me. I am going to tile or paver the front stoop, and the railing can't go in until that is done.

Got trim painted in one bedroom and put the first coat of final paint on. Looks really nice. The color is Magnolia Spray (Olympic). The whole upstairs will be this color.
