Day 197: So Close But So Far Away

Well we have survived in the motel for a full week now, hopefully, we will survive for the next "several weeks" per our contractor. It's amazing how we go from the first of September to the 15th of September and now it will be the end of the month and possibly the first week of October. After all of that good news this weekend, we just had to take a long, an extra long drive today to get out of our prison (our motel) and hopefully maintain our sanity or insanity whichever should apply.

Now with that said let's see how we did this week. Our appliance have arrived and are in cold storage nearby until the home is ready. The garage door was installed and so we have a secure home for the most part now. In addition, the banister on the back porch was also installed.










The painters have done a great job and have finished all of the interior except for the cold storage. They'll have to return to do some touch up but the color scheme looks great with the floor and the cabinets.
Yes, the cabinets also arrived on Friday and Saturday they were nearly installed. The place is rapidly coming together but we are still being told that we are 3-4 weeks out.




In fact, I created my own schedule this weekend and estimated durations to complete the remaining task. Hm, my schedule shows that if the contractor does some Proper, Prior Planning to Prevent Poor Performance we should be in our home no later than the 25th of the month. As I said we are so close yet so far away!
