Sixty seven days ago my husband put in our new front door.
.

.
And for sixty seven days I’ve been (none too patiently) waiting for him to finish the job by trimming it with interior moulding.
.

.
Finally!
.

.
It will be nice not to see insulation and ragged edges again.
As usual I assumed the role of quality control and rendered some things unacceptable.
.

.
And though there was a fair amount of grumbling from the installer, it all worked out in the end.
.

.
If sixty six days late.
.

Disclaimer – no cats were disturbed during the installation process.

I love that picture of Dudley. 100% unconcerned.
Nice job on the door. Is it finished on the outside (I forget).

Okay, it’s late but it’s finished. Not on your timeline but the project has been finalized none the less, lol.

But if you hibernate, who is going to see your new door? Only us. And you!
The big guy won’t ever look at it again.

But I’m really the only one who counts.

Those final touches are generally the things put off! I don’t know how many of those kind of projects we have around the house. Luckily we don’t get as much company as we once did.

If it had been up to him, it would never have been finished.

You reminded me of our friend we call “Farmer Fred” at the Santa Barbara Farmer’s Market. He placessiclaimers among his eggplants and peppers that say “Dolphin safe” or “No dolphins were injured.”

Isn’t 67 days in RG Husband Time roughly equivalent to five days for the rest of us?

Doors can be tricky, especially if you are into that “open and close” thingy.

I’m funny that way.
I prefer my doors to be without wind tunnel effects…

I had a giggle at seeing Dudley there, not giving one F.
The door looks great! Glad it didn’t take 70 days.

I think your husband could build an entire house in that time.
