The "Lamp" Picture

Progress:

So after two months of fighting about the concrete being poured extremely poorly (well it's not really fighting as they just didn't get back to me).  I was fed up after trying to get them to answer and I filed an official compliant with the Better Business Bureau and the very next day I get an email saying that they will replace my apron.  Funny how that works.  I did also contact the people Jayman "said" they were going to contact which is the Alberta Ready Mixed Concrete Association (ARMCA).  It also helped that I work next to engineers who deal with concrete in every kind of way from overpasses, highways, sidewalks, curbs, etc.

Did I already say my Hunter Douglas blind cord snapped?  Well, it did but I am bringing it in on Monday to have it fixed which shouldn't be too big of an issue.

NOTE: If you are building with Jayman watch out for where your oven is in correlation to your fire alarm.  Mine is under my alarm and so I have to make sure all windows are open and the fan is on and that isn't even when you burn something.  I don't know if you can make them on opposite sides but if you can, definitely try because it makes things a little bit harder.

And to my lovely co-worker; here are the pictures I promised you (sorry for them being a bit late):

The far right corner is where the lamp will be going.

Better view of the type of living room we have.  Phantom is laying underneath the table staring at me.

  2. I heard about your site but I didn't know it was still up (love the blog btw). I thought about doing exactly what you did actually.
