We managed to make some headway last night laying the ceramic tile. My hands still have a bit of stubborn tile adhesive on them as I type. The base-boards were pulled as soon as I got home from work. I’d planned on going to a coffee shop and working on my presentation, but I figured I could do that Sat and Sun.
Once the baseboards were up, it was time to think about where to lay the first tile…and how the others would fall around it. This took a long time. Its tough trying to map out the tile layout to get as many full tiles as possible (and keep them straight!). We finally decided to snap a chalk-line and I started tiling while Aislinn went out to get more stuff for showing the house (vases, borrowed rug, paintings…stuff we just don’t have, but make the house show better 
).
I managed 30 tiles before she got back. I only had 4 that had to be modified. 2 just needed a corner chopped…and 2 needed a notch. The notches sucked. I didn’t want to drag out the wetsaw with the boys sleeping (it was 10 by now). I managed to chop the corner off of both…and ‘liquid-naile’d them both back on. It worked out well.
So now I’m here at the coffee shop working on my presentation. (And blogging a little).
