AUGUST 14TH - FLOORING STARTED

We now have flooring going down!!!!!  I wasn't sure how I would like this type of flooring but my budget really didn't allow us to go hardwood.  We felt that if we wanted hardwood later down the road that this would work for now.  I'm happy with the look of it and how it did turn out the only thing with darker floors is that you see everything, but that's what you have dust mops and kids for even though the kids haven't found the dust mops yet.

AUGUST 10TH - SEPTIC IS TO BE STARTED AGAIN

Septic was going in and the 12th was being finished. 



Rough grade

AUGUST 9TH - NOPE NOTHING TODAY

We stopped out to see the flooring crew laying the flooring and well.......... NOTHING!  NOT ONE PERSON OUT THERE PUTTING FLOORING DOWN.  ITS FRIDAY WHAT WAS I THINKING!
We sometimes can see the light at the end of the tunnel and then sometimes the light seems to be on a dimmer. 
Apparently the flooring crew didn't pick up the job and now they are scrambling to start tomorrow....Saturday.  They tell me that they will do all they can to get the job done by Tuesday.  Not sure I'm going to hold my breath on that one. 

AUGUST 8TH - FLOORING.......NO

Went out today to check out flooring and guess what "NO FLOORING".  Apparently the flooring crew got held up on a job so they said they would be out tomorrow.....Friday?  I haven't seen anyone in a long time out there working on a Friday or a Monday in fact for a very long long time.  So we will see.

AUGUST 7TH - CLOSET SHELVES

Today the closet shelving was installed in all the rooms and the one bedroom closet door was installed to swing into the room. The bathroom mirrors are up.

We went through the house and marked all the little things in the drywall that needed touched up.  Flooring should start tomorrow.  I'm getting excited :).

The septic had to be put on hold because they had an emergency but should be completed on Saturday and inspected on Monday.

Was told that flooring would start tomorrow and will finish up on Friday. 

AUGUST 6TH - LIGHTS AND OUTLETS

The electrician was out putting in the outlets and the outside lights. It's was so exciting to walk in and turn on some lights. We are getting close. He should finish up tomorrow with everything.

AUGUST 1ST - KITCHEN ISLAND

The carpenter was out today and put in the kitchen island and trimmed out the basement windows.  They cut the trim for the baseboard but did not tack it in.  That might be because the floor has to be put in before they run this little trim piece.  Makes sense.
