House Update, Week Two

Here is what the house looked like on Monday at 12:30 PM:

And here is what it looked yesterday at 3:30 PM (twenty-seven hours later):

Can you believe it? These contractors move like lightning! In fact, Brennan and I left there today at 3:30 PM, Jim arrived to see it about an hour later on his way home from work, and they had already put more gables up on the roof, making my pictures outdated. I can't possibly post a recent enough photo!

Brennan loves to take pictures of the house with his Fisher-Price camera. I'm sure the workmen probably get a real kick out of it.

As of right now, the plan is that the shingles will go on tomorrow, plumbing will be done on Thursday, HVAC will be done on Friday, and electrical will be done on Saturday. Then, wiring will be done on Monday, and we have a pre-drywall inspection scheduled for next Wednesday morning (3/31) at 9:30 AM. We will do our own walkthrough later that day.

We are currently running ahead of schedule, and there is actually a possibility that the house will be done at the beginning of May instead of the end of the month! Guess I ought to think about packing...

Oh yeah, that reminds me. The contract for this rental house fell through, and we have another showing on Friday afternoon. I'm not worrying about it this time. It is what it is, and I'm moving out in about 6 - 8 weeks. (Can you hear me squealing?)
