JULY 29TH - SEPTIC STARTED

We went out to check on things and they started on the septic today and should finish up Thursday. 

Our field manager ran over the schedule and it looks promising.  The carpenter should be here this week and the island is to be installed.  Electrician should be in to finish next week and the flooring should start going down next week or the week after.  Things should start moving at a better pace now that we have electricity. 

My hope was to be in before school started August 23rd but doesn't look like it.  So my hopes are that we are in before the end of August. 

JULY 26TH - WE HAVE ELECTRIC !!!!!!!!!!!

OH MY GOD WE HAVE ELECTRIC!!!!!

Drove by and we seen 2 big trucks and a pickup parked so we kept our fingers crossed, you don't know what other reason they might give you.  But we came back and they where done.

We started the AC unit to start the drying out process and get the humidity levels down. 

Thought the septic guys would be out Thursday no, thought Friday no.  Well hope his out there this week. 

Boy, it seems that's all I do is HOPE this and HOPE that.  I would like to say this is happening and this is getting done but...........no just HOPES!

JULY 25TH - STILL NO ELECTRIC

We ran out to check on everything to find that no one from AEP was there.  All they had to do is put the transformer up and run the wire to the house.  I know to me it seems easy and simple and shouldn't take that long but come on your almost there.  So again I called left messages...."Well its Thursday and I still have no electric"  I tried to use my nice, patient voice but it was hard.  They told me they had an accident and had to send their crew to another location.  Looks like it to me that they need to hire a few more people. 

Again, nothing going on at the house. 

JULY 23RD - 24TH

Well AEP was out to install the poles on Tuesday and on Wednesday they ran the wire.......we are getting closer, but still NO electric. 

JULY 22ND - SAD DAY

Well, we stopped by to find that we had been broken into. That really sucks!!  They even took my jugs of water that I had to clean the steel beam and they took bottles of water that Wayne left after the open house......really?  They even broke a basement window but didn't come in that way and after they took what they wanted they even locked the sliding glass door downstairs before they left.....strange.
I hope they catch the people that did this, but I'm not holding my breath that we will get our stuff back. 

JULY 15TH - AC UNIT INSTALLED

Glad to see something happening at the house.  Its the beginning of the 4th week that nothing really hasn't been done around the house.  Just a few things here and there but nothing big and nothing that's really going to get us in the house in the next few weeks.  And we where moving along so well not the case now.

JULY 15TH - NEW FIELD MANAGER

I got a call and was told that our field manager is no longer with the company and we have been assigned another manager.  Great, I'm a little disappointed but what are you going to do. 

NO ELECTRIC = AEP SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  WHERE IS THE CUSTOMER SERVICE, LETS MAKE THE CUSTOMER HAPPY........WELL NOT WITH AEP.  THEY JUST WANT YOUR MONEY AND THEY DONT CARE IF THEY HAVE PUT EVERYONE INVOLVED IN BUILDING YOUR DREAM HOME ON HOLD.
