Look Ma, No Rain!

Finally things are moving forward and we have lasted nicely thru the last two bouts of rain! We had been holding up the project ourselves because we were not done with the electrical. We finally had to call in for some reinforcements (i.e. hired help!) to get the job done so we could move on. We got the job done and now we were waiting for the fireplaces to finish being installed. Then we also had another run in with another fireplace installer! That's two down and we started to panic slightly, because at this point, the only thing left for approval was the fireplaces and we had no one to install them! The other tidbit of information that made the situation worse is most fireplace people are so busy repairing fireplaces now, they don't even have time to do the installs, or worse yet, they don't even DO them in the winter because of all the repair work. Fuckin' Fantastic! It took a lot of hustle but we managed to find someone to install them and today we pass our inspection!!!!! We are now going to insulate, get approval for that on Monday and then Tuesday, they show up to start drywall! Shut up, I can't even believe I'm saying that! Really! At the same time they are going to start putting the chicken wire up outside and then they stucco. We are so excited that we are taking some HUGE steps forward. Master Fireplace: HD/S/WC: 180
