House Update

Happy May! By now, everyone should be having spectacular weather. May is a great time to be in Naples. All of the snowbirds are heading home, traffic is light, and you don't need restaurant reservations on a Saturday night.

Things are moving very slowly on my home renovation project. I need to have our window replacement plan approved by an engineer before we can move forward. Florida has a law about replacing more than 25% of your windows....don't quote me...but they need to have impact resistant glass, or hurricane shutters installed over them. I will be installing impact resistant glass windows. I weighted the convenience of not having to apply the shutters ever time there was a need with the fact that nobody in this house would actually do it. Decision made.

Another decision that needs to be made is the wall tile combination for the kids bathroom. I can't decide between beveled subway or flat subway?

Thoughts?

I think this will be my new (to me) kitchen/dining table. I found it in Palm Beach and am smitten with it. 

I need permission from the homeowners' association that resides over the furniture in this soon-to-be renovated party room. I hope they say yes. 

I'm off to hunt for countertops. I think I'm leaning toward quartzite. Of course that's subject to change like everything else around here.
