The Weekly Wrap Up

With this week coming to an end,even though there is still a possibility that some tarring could take place tomorrow, I'm still going to post the weekly wrap up regardless.And let's face it, we all know it's not going to happen,I hope I am proven wrong.

But the week was not a total write-off as has happened in previous weeks here.The foundation is ready to be tarred and we have part of a framed wall in the what is soon to be a basement.Gip rock and weeping tile are in and I think the building inspector is coming to check things out on Monday from what our contractor was telling me.Of course that could change. 

So with the baby arriving in 3 weeks, things here on the construction front are moving slowly.We would like to get things done by at least the first or second week of September,but that all depends on our contractor.If he keeps taking jobs along the way that won't happen.I understand it's hard to turn down the money, but he only works with two other guys so he can't very well spread his guys out at different jobs.Since there is only two of them I hope he would keep this in mind.

The way I look at it is,everyday he is not here we are upset because things here are held up and I am sure that if he has other jobs on the go(which I know he does),every time he is here they are probably pissed that he is not working there.

Don't get me wrong the guy does great work(so I have heard) but you can't keep taking on jobs while your trying to finish other jobs,people will just end up mad no matter how good your work is.And that could be bad for business.That's all I have to say on that matter.

Well like I said we could see some tarring tomorrow we might not.Everyday of this job has been like Christmas,it's always a surprise because we never know what we are going to get.Sometimes it's like getting a lump of coal,sometimes it's like getting that really cool toy.

We just never know until we wake up and open our eyes!
