Actually Moving forward

The plumbers finally came!!


Then they left all of their trash, except for the copper pipes. That definitely gets filed under very very irritating. We moved all the trash out onto the driveway and called the boss plumber man about it. He said it would get taken care of. Two days and counting waiting for them to show up (all while heading into a holiday weekend), but it's all okay because we haven't paid them yet. Payment will occur upon trash pickup....

In the meantime, during those two days, the electrician came and took down more sheetrock and moved all the wiring we needed moved. We will now be able to turn the kitchen lights on and off from the hall!

We now have two guys in there hanging sheetrock at lightning speeds. They say they will be done with the mudding and everything by tonight, so tomorrow after swim lessons and Camelot graduation, we will be able to paint and maybe even begin laying the floor. Sunday (only a week behind schedule!) we should have the floor laid and be ready to actually start installing the kitchen. It can't come fast enough.

I am a little scared of how much all this extra sheetrock hanging is going to cost us. We have the plumbing price already and it could still come within the extras budget, but fingers are definitely crossed.
