As you can see not much has changed from my last post. We do have tin (on half the house). The crew that is installing it only works in the afternoons and we all know when the rain showers come.
We are supposed to be getting the brick and rock laid soon but we are still waiting for materials to be delivered. Also I think our mason of choice is working on the new high school. Bigger job + more profit = us waiting. **Note: Yes I said brick. We decided to save some bills by putting brick over the block foundation instead of the ledge stone . We figured that will be covered by bushes and plants (eventually) anyway. We will put the rock on the bottom half of the columns.
We have picked out our vinyl siding and shutters but the vinyl guy can't do anything until the brick work is finished so you guessed it......we are waiting for that too.
On top of all of that our contractors main helper is having back issues so pray that clears up soon because I am getting desperate. I need my house finished. On that note I will now vent about ONE of my current pet peeves.............
If you come to my house DO NOT say to me something like...."there aint no way they will be done with this in 3 months", "It'll will be a year before they are finished" or "I just don't see how the will ever get done".
I have been responding by saying "they better, or I will be so hard to get along with they can't wait to finish my house". Now I will be saying "Hellloooo??? I am aware it may take longer than promised but continuously saying that to me is not helpful. Are you are incapable of telling uplifting and positive things????
Ahh, that feels better :)
Notice I said one of my pet peeves......All you future home builders out there, trust me when start your project you will develop lots!!
It is looking good!! Well, I think it will be done soon. I know you are beyond ready!!
