Been working for a few hours every day on the house; bought all the ceiling fans on Black Friday sale so I've been installing those:

I mounted the first of two water heaters; waiting on Rinnai-brand (to keep the warranty happy) service/clean-out valves, they have been out of stock.

I installed a Speed Queen gas dryer (converted it to propane) in the master closet, so I finally turned on the propane to the house and bled the air out of the lines. Dryer works great and all is well with the lines, valves, and connections. Even though I'm very confident in my ability to make tight, safe, and leak-free propane connections and they all pressure-tested perfectly, it makes me think about what could possibly go wrong when I opened the valves. I went around one more time and checked every connection and fitting, this time with a combustible gas detector, just to make sure, but it's all good.

I tried a new (but expensive) way to hook up the dryer vent, the MagVent. It's a clever way to connect the vent with a strong circular magnet. Seems to have worked well, but they're $100 each. Supposed to make it way easier to disconnect and reconnect when cleaning lint out of the vent.

The mrs. has been painting more walls and base boards.
The counter top guy was supposed to come this week for final measurements, but now wants to wait until after the new year; we're disappointed but it's not that big of a deal after having been working on the house for this long.
