There is only me and 1 other person in the office today. Most people in my office took until Monday off and then most people who were in Wednesday and yesterday took today off. So, it is very quiet around here today! It’s going to be very busy next week when everyone is back. And we have a new employee starting on Monday, she’s an engineering grad with approx. 1 year experience, so she’s like a mini-me ;) She’s where I was 3-4 years ago. I haven’t met her yet, but I’m sure she’s nice. That will bring us to 12 employees. We’re growing!
I got my P.Eng. application mailed off yesterday, so it is officially out of my hands! CT told me that when I get my P.Eng., he'll take me for dinner anywhere in Ontario. So, I'll have to think on that one! Ontario is a very big province, I'm not sure he knows what he got himself into ;)
Our bathroom renovation is going well. Right now, the bathroom is completely demolished. Yesterday, dad took the tub and tiles out. Today, he’s taking the boards that were under the floor out. He’s taking it right down to the rafters so that he can build a floor that is level. Apparently, one side of our bathroom is 2.5 inches higher than the other! He’s also taking the cabinet out today, so after today, there will be literally nothing left of the bathroom. That means tomorrow is time to take everything to the dump! It’s amazing how much stuff came out of one little room! Our house is a disaster right now, and that’s just from the stuff from the bathroom.
Tomorrow we also have to buy a bathtub, we already have one picked out at Home Depot. And we also need to order a vanity. CT and I are going to check out one last place at lunch today (we couldn’t check this place before because they were closed between Christmas and New Years). If we don’t see anything better than the one we already have our eye on, then we’re going to order that one tomorrow.
So my weekend will consist of home renos. I can’t wait until the bathroom is all done! I have no idea how long this reno will take, but I’m thinking at least a couple weeks because dad is building the entire room, flooring from the joists up, drywalling, tiling, etc. I sure am lucky that I have such a talented daddy! I thought he may have to hire someone to do the plumbing, electrical, etc., but he's going to do it all himself! What a man!
