2 Weeks

The bank has given us a deadline of the end of October to complete our project. We told them up front that it would take 6 to 9 months. We then have had several significant delays.
1. Finding out that the foundation went only to ground level. This meant removing all of the interior brick walls and building new stick walls. +1.5 months.
2. Truss plant behind schedule. This delayed the roof trusses by 1 month. We did everything we could without a roof. We also had to vacuum gallons of water every time it rained.
3. Windows. Delayed by 2 weeks. The state historical society required us to go with a more expensive and longer to make windows.

We spent the weekend prepping and priming all of walls and ceilings. We also got more of the roof panels installed. Last Thursday I worked until 4 am. Friday I was busy until 5:30 am. Saturday everyone was tired and so we quit early at 2am.

There is so much yet to be done. Many of the items are contingent on completing other tasks. We have to paint before the kitchen cabinets get her Wednesday. We have to paint before we can tile the bathrooms or put down the wood floor.

SO Much Too do.
