Does anyone else think it's odd that we are 12 days away from our closing date with so much left to do? I find comfort in knowing that eventually we will be done, but just not convinced we'll be in before Christmas. For now, we wait. The kids waiting for the Christmas tree with presents (although I've been trying to tell them no tree this year). Alan and I wait to sign papers and for the go ahead to assemble a moving team (to our friends and family who have offered to help us move we apologize in advance for the timing). And finally, our buyer of our current home waits to finally move in to the house he purchased in August. Brian, our friend who bought it, truly blessed us when he agreed to wait to take occupancy.
And on to the update...
As you can see concrete has been poured in the front and back (minus the front porch), cabinets have been hung, closets are almost complete, trim is almost done, insulation in the basement (minus crawlspace & attic), and laminate flooring in the den was installed (a big thank you to Ron for helping Alan). Progress was definitely made last week, but lots to do still. We are praying for patience (and warmer weather - concrete was poured when it was 20 some degrees, high of 31). Some of the work that still needs to be completed is: interior and exterior paint, stone work, decking, finish plumbing & electrical, tile work, and carpet. PS - ask Alan how his legs feel if you see him!! :)
