Big box

June 10, 2012

Today, Alok continued to work on the hole he made in the wall..... although he then covered it with wood.  I'm not sure what the heck he is doing, but he assures me that he has a plan.  Hmmmm......

We also got some new old molding from the a co-worker's house, which I forgot to take a picture of so, that is much more exciting for me than it is for all of you ;-)

After the excitement at the house, we participated in our "favorite" Sunday pastime, going to all of the big box stores to spend more gobs of money. We started at Lowes to see if they had what he needed for the shower in our master bath. The idea was that we had a sink and laminate countertops that we needed delivered.  Alok said that the countertops wouldn't even fit in a regular pick up, so we figured that we would buy what we needed there so that everything could get delivered at once, and we could save on $$$.  To our dismay, Lowes did not have the shower system that we needed.  Alok went to go negotiate the delivery price.  I went to go check out something else and found him laughing. The laminate is rolled up very small and fits in this box, which went nicely in my car:

I don't know why he thought that it was so big!!  He then pictured himself showing up in a large truck that he had paid to rent, only to pick up this box and a bar sink (which is about 14 inches by 14 inches).

Here is he, carrying the "very large" box:

We then proceeded to Home Depot, which did have the shower system, but we were missing a measurement. So, we will hopefully be able to order that soon.  (Yes, we are doing the master bath now.... why stop, right?)
