moving forward by millimeters

Another slow week on the ranch...... the framers were in and out. They worked about 4 hrs total. Honestly, that is SO frustrating, if they would just work for a whole day, they'd be DONE. Don't get it.... They come and caulk for an hour or two and then just drop everything, leave, and don't bother to come back for 2 days, with their caulk laying out in the dirt. Have I said I don't get it? The painter kind of bailed on us too, too mamy colors, not enough time. He did show up today, though, to work on the great room.......

Love this grey, although right now, the way the light is, it kinda looks purple. Go figure. He also did the jack and jill bathroom and the powder room (different color), and said he was going to do the laundry room (another different color). All of this is so that they can start to install cabinets and flooring next week!!! He'll be back to do the bedrooms later. No big deal there. I also had a meeting with the tile guy. Not sure when he's starting, but I think next week as well. We're also supposed to get attic insulation and the electricians will be back to put in the light fixtures, since the ceilings are all done. The biggest development this week was the garage door.

Now the house is secure and the interior work can begin. It's been a long time since we had a garage door, and this one is pretty darned cool. (and quiet) It has a keyless entry, internet connection and light with a motion sensor. WOW! Tomorrow, we're off to confirm appliance choices and it sounds like next week will be pretty darned crazy. Let's hope so. I think these folks would approve.........
