I believe it will finally start

Well, after a horrible night the other night with anxiety over the house situation we finally got a call from the contractor. Dave is meeting with him tonight to go over all the final stuff and hand over the key to the house and they will begin on Monday or Tuesday. WOOHOO!!!!

I finally got a somewhat decent sleep last night. The contractor assured us that he know of our deadline and he said it shouldn't be a problem. Now let's hope that you don't find a post from me in a month and a half saying that I am going to have an ulcer because they are so far behind schedule.

House anxiety

OMG, this stinkin' house project is really starting to give me agida. We were given final approval for the permits almost a week ago now and they were picked up by the contractor on Friday (today is Monday) and they still haven't started a damn thing. We were told that the guy in charge of the contstruction has been sick in bed all weekend. What I want to know is if they knew we would have the permits last week why didn't they line things up so that things could begin today like ripping off the shingles and siding? I just worry that this project will not get done in the time we were told. We ideally should have started a few weeks ago.

It just seems like nothing is going smoothly since we started this and I am worried that it will continue that way. I am praying that things turn around and once they get started they encounter no problems and get done quickly.
