Thursday
So Thursday morning came I took the time in the AM to measure out all the cut tile pieces I would need to finish tiling and then mark them out on the tile. I then took a trip to the local tool rental shop and rented a tile saw. I rented the saw for four hours and cut all the pieces I needed and then took it back to the store. I came home and started to tile the floor. Mixing the Thinset was a pain it is not as easy as the bag says it is. It shows a hand mixing the thinset with a trowel but that is BS, I could hardly move a trowel in the mix. I had to sack up and dive in with both hands and mix the mixture by hand breaking the clumps with my hands it was hard. It took about 10 minutes and then it was mixed well and ready to use. I started under the Fridge and moved out toward the stove and it went with out a hitch. In the afternoon the cable guy came and we finally got our cable and internet. While he was setting up I took the time to unpack all the books and put them in the bookcase. We were thinking of not doing this and leaving them till the carpet comes in but that could take two weeks so I decided that was not a good idea I did not want to live out of boxes for two weeks so I unpacked them all. After that was all done I waited for Katie to come home and we sampled on of the local Pizza joints and it was great.
