post 12: day 9, product ordering

We hit our first speed bump today - the soonest we can get the bathroom tile is 9/9 and most likely, it'll be here 9/12. That's a full week after we were hoping to start tiling. Sad sad sad face. We meet with Dmitry tomorrow morning to confirm products. I probably won't be able to stop myself from asking about changes to schedule.

Here are some pictures from today's kitchen countertop, flooring, and tile picking excursion. We went to Paulsen's on MLK between Salmon and Taylor. 

Here's Garrett showing me the countertop choices he likes. We picked the top one. It's white, with a faint vein of marbling.

We also stopped by the Ferguson plumbing supply showroom and found what I thought might be true: there are no narrow vanities that are remotely attractive. We are having Vlad make us a custom vanity for the upstairs bathroom.
