End in sight??

So, our builder says he'll be done by 3/13. (!) It's Friday the 13th - should we be concerned? He also says he will help us move our furniture the next day, which is nice. And then the slow musical-chairs begins of moving several rooms into several other rooms, with some painting to boot.
One of the nice features we will have is the built in window seat, which is pretty much done.

The window seat features lift-up seats for storage, and we'll get some comfy pillows for the area. Note the built-in bookshelves - the one on the right is what it will look like with the arch to match the arch details down on our first floor, and of course it will be stained.
Here is a picture of the south side of the master bedroom, with the windows stained with the trim. All the windows will have grilles to give the divided-light appearance as well.

Chris has also been working on the closet - it is hard to get a good photo of this - but you can see the set up at least. The ledge along the wall is covering the duct for the heating/cooling unit but will serve us nicely for shoes, maybe. We will have 3 built-in shelves to either side of the window as well.

And the shower door is in too. We are anxiously awaiting the use of this shower, because the water pressure in our lower floor shower leaves something to be desired.

Up next: the blinds are being put in tomorrow. This was key for us to be able to move up there, given how close we are to our neighbors. And then - we'll see if we're done on Friday!
