A Whole Lot More Of Nothing!

As you can tell by the post title there is still nothing going on! Much to our disappointment things for some reason keep stoping! Now it's getting to the point were it is becoming frustrating.We have a new baby due to arrive in August and at the rate things are going,well let's just say that things will not even be close to being ready.

My wife is having the baby down south where her family is from, which is great for them because they don't have to drive all the way up here.Add to the fact we wouldn't have any place for them to stay.The plan was she would go down there, have the baby and then her and my son would spend a few weeks down there.I would come back up here(home) get the inside of the house ready and when it was finished I would go and pick them up and bring them back up here( home) to a new house.Now I'm thinking at the rate things are getting done around here the inside of the house probably will not be ready before my 6 year old son starts school! 

I was talking with my dad at lunch today and earlier that morning he was talking to a friend of the family who owned a construction business for years,he actually just retired earlier this year.He was also the one who did the original plans for the house for us free of charge which is always nice. He told my dad that, yes there are always issues that come up but the fact remains that these issues shouldn't take 2 or 3 or 4 days to resolve.And they shouldn't stop the job dead in it's tracks.Although in this case the job never really got started to begin with.The fact of the matter is the building inspector came over,looked at the problem,gave the contractor possible solutions,the contractor gave us our options,we told him what we wanted to do and now the job should be moving along.There is no need my dad was told by our contractor friend that the job should be stoped after the problem was discussed and a solution was agreed upon.

I really just hope by next week something happens.We are really getting tired of staring at that massive hole in the backyard not to mention the dirt and mud that is all over the place because of all the rain.We now have to use our front door to go in and out of the house because there is so much mud from all the sand in the driveway. I can't even park the car in the driveway!That's all the bitching I have for now.Don't worry I'm sure the way things are going there will be plenty more to come.

Here is hoping that next week is better!
