Now You Can Really Peek Inside

The windows started going in today! Two were incorrect (thank you Chris, for taking care of that problem and doing the "yelling" for us!) and the problem will be remedied shortly. They had most of the house taped when we went by at 3:00, so I imagine they got pretty far. I think they're pretty ready to leave this project behind and move on to the next, so I hope they can finish quickly tomorrow and move on. The shingles have been delivered and the valves for the plumbing arrived today. We'll pick up the tubs tomorrow and deliver them to the house for the plumber on Thursday.


Mom and I woke up early and stood at the doors of Tuesday Morning with 20 other chumps waiting for the doors to open (actually, mom went to the store in Rockwall, and I went to the store in Garland to maximize our chances...). Anyway, we were there to get the deeply discounted shipment of Price Pfister faucets that were on sale starting today at 8:00 am. The faucets usually run anywhere from $100-250 plus, and these we got for $50-100. I hope Erik likes what I picked out. I'll feel pretty silly taking them back...a summer morning to sleep in wasted. It was hilarious. Everyone went directly to whatever item they were there bright and early to snatch up, and all the "faucet people" raced to grab the goods. Luckily, the Garland store had a much bigger supply than Rockwall, and I was able to get faucets for the entire house. I will post pictures pending Erik's green light.



Tomorrow, the roof. Thursday, the plumbing top off. Friday...who knows.













They finished the Hardie under the porch, too.
