Well, we started the tiling (sp?) work in our kitchen Sunday. I mopped that darn floor three times. We had trouble getting the linoleum to come up so we are going to have to tile over it. Not to happy about that. When we bought this house they had just put new flooring and carpet in it. Whoever put that linoleum in wanted to make sure that it wouldn't come loose, ever.
We have moved the table and fridge to the living room so we can use them but it is so tight I'm hoping that will keep my hubby from stopping to do something else for a while. I also have a supply of paper plates, cups and stuff to use. He just keeps looking at me like I'm crazy. I am not washing dishes in the bathroom sink, Thank you. It took four monthes to get the hall bathroom usable again. He still isn't done with it either. I'm going to do everything I can to encourage him to finish it this week. I should point out he won't let me help with the actual tiling work he wants to do it alone. I will however be handling the painting of the walls so I guess I'll be doing my share anyway.

I tiled a kitchen and dining room once. It was great fun. Good luck with all the work.
Oh - I know how to deal with this! I was married to Fritz the Procrastinator, King of Unfinished Projects.
Raise your right hand and repeat after me: "I do solemnly swear to hire professionals to do any and all work that my husband fails to complete within a reasonable time frame." You give him a choice: finish the hall bath/kitchen tile or pay someone who will!
Well the backerboard is in. My hubby is so sore he can barely move. He is going to put in the tile tonight. I put a time limit on this project and on our utility room too when he gets to it. I can't live without either for very long.
