Hey There !!


Good News: I am home, safe and sound. 


Bad News: A setback has put a damper on my plans....


It seems the builder I was scheduled to work with decided to temporarily drop a few smaller clients to take on a bigger contract. That means that instead of having my house ready for delivery by October, they want to deliver in December.

I live in Canada !! That's not feasible !!!
So reluctantly, I will reschedule my project for the spring.

I did get quotes from other builders, hoping to still pull off my plans, but of course, they were more expensive. Honestly, I'm kinda glad they were, because I still prefer the work of my original builder.

I have to look a it in a good light. More time to tweak my plans, which I like. And a few extra weeks to work on felling the rest of the trees that need to go before excavation (Part Deux) can begin. Between meetings, playing phone tag to reschedule my trades, and work, I've been pretty busy.

The extra 5 to 6 months of apartment bills kinda suck. Not what I expected. Such is life at times. I will have to work my butt off to compensate though. Fun times, I like to think that I still have things under control ;-)

    I thought you lived in an igloo anyway.

    Sounds like your builder works and plans the same way that they do around here. Sometimes they show up when scheduled, sometimes they show up when they damned well feel like it. It's not like we have an abundance of quality workers to choose from around here.

    The joys of living in the boondocks!

    But, ya know, I would not rather live anywhere else that I have lived over the years. This is it for me.

    So, with all of that, here's to having a wonderful day, sweetie! ;-D

    Don't rush it Dusty, no snow yet ;-)

    I agree Bob, it will be worth the "temporary headaches" :-)

    Thanks Gary, I suppose it is, depending on your intended meaning of jugging ;-)

    Glad to see you back MissK.

    Sorry to hear about your builder but
    1) that is the nature of that beast and
    2) things tend to work out somehow.

    Meanwhile I trust your batteries are fully charged and you're ready for anything.
