We started out with drywall going in on Monday. Then the "finishers" were supposed to come Tuesday but we had to wait for an inspection first and of course even after we requested him to come in the morning he didn't get here till 2 ish in the pm. ;( anyway, we passed the inspection and then Wednesday they couldn't come due to unforeseen circumstances soooooo... Already a couple days behind... So they got here, the same day as the concrete driller guy got here, the same day as our 2 worker guys were here and the same day our 3 tile guys were here... SO NEEDLESS TO SAY IT WAS A ZOO! Everyone was In everyone else's way including me and the boys!
Friday was the day I sorta lost it. Again everyone was here (minus the concrete guy) and we knew the "finishers" had to get into our 16 year old autistic sons room to finish the ceiling, fix some cracks and work in the closet. So I told all the guys that I was going to be leaving with the boys to go bowling and be out till after lunch so that was when they could get into his room because he is very particular about his space! And it has gone sooooo smoothly BECAUSE his room has pretty much been left untouched. I'm not sure what happened with the communication but all of a sudden 4 guys are in his room pulling stuff out, EVERYTHING out!!!! My 16 year old is standing in the hall saying "hey what are you doing?", " where is that going?", "hey don't touch that!" So I packed up the boys and we left. I called my husband and he went to the house to explain to everyone that room needs to be DONE and stuff needs to be put back where it was by the time our son goes to bed that night or else NO ONE in this family will sleep ;(... When we got home they were done in there but stuff hadn't gone back in yet. I was done!!!!! Anyway, crisis was averted and things were put back together and all is at peace in our home once again! ;) yayyyyyy God! Nobody messes with MY BUBBA!!!!!
The approx estimated time of completion is by the 4th of August!!!! And that's the structural stuff - I'm sure my hubby and I will be working still for a good 6-8 months to finish all the little things!!! But I'm ready to have my house back! ;) it just feels like there is still so much to be done! We still have the texturing of the drywall, the completion of the master bath, the roof isn't done yet, the electrical box hasn't been moved, the A.C. is still not hooked up, nor is the irrigation, the siding is not up on the outside, the stucco isn't even started, there is no patio, still ALL DIRT, we have no patio cover... 2 weeks and counting...say a prayer!!! I'll keep ya posted!
