We were away for Christmas (a whole week) visiting Lianne's family & friends in Ottawa and Andreas' family in Guelph.
However, believe it or not there was still some work happening at the house. We know because Andreas kept getting calls!
First day back from our Christmas travels and we've got a To Do list from the electrician. One thing is to go through the house & look at what he's done to see if it's right or not. Unfortunately the electrician went ahead with some wiring against instructions to wait for our approval. We will need to move some things, and Andreas is hell bent on doing it himself so he unscrewed some electrical outlet boxes and placed them where we actually want them.
Most things are good but there are some that we needed to 'adjust'. Then again there is only 1/2 the electrics done at this point.
Our other to do list was to decide where all the kitchen lighting is to go. I put on my Kitchen Imagination Hat & we set to work. Some two hours later we've pointed and drawn sketches and used 2x4's to lay out the 'kitchen' so that we at least have some idea of where the counters will be. This is not an easy chore! The last thing we needed to also do was to mark 'exactly' on the ceiling where the lights above the island would be. Okay I say & then practically bend over backwards for another hour or so while Andreas climbs up and down and up and down and up and down the ladder.
Here is one of the 'approved' electrical parts - after this we moved it! Master Bedroom the plugs and light switches on either side of the bed.

'X' marks the spot! Andreas marking the over island pendant lights. Hopefully in the right place!
