Well — May is finally done. We got about 1-3/4 inches of rain there at the end of the month. Potentially we will get some the first part of June.
The days are very warm, and I can’t get the house cooled down enough at night to make it comfortable to work. What if I reverse the days (sleep in the daytime, and work at night?) Maybe I can get more done.
The first task now is to lay out the tile for the bathroom floor, to see how it will fit. Then I may get some tile laid in the next few days. I have been trying to get some stain on the porch and deck, but the rain gets in the way. I don’t get enough space for the wood to dry out before another storm comes. Maybe it will have to wait until later.
We’re putting a ditra underlayment on the floor under the bathroom tile. It will help the tile to remain stable and not flex. I got some put down and then after a couple of days, I can start installing the tile.
Got some of the bathroom tile laid in the guest bath and partway into the main bath. I hope to be able to install the baseboard tomorrow, then I can install the toilet. That will be nice!
As soon as I can connect the condensate line to the water heater, I’m going to get it running. Since it is a heat pump, it should help cool the air in the house. (It takes the heat from the air, and puts it into the water.)
