Progress report

This was a very fun week for me. The framers finished up early in the week and the plumbers, HVAC, and siders moved in. I absolutely loved working with the plumbers. They were so accomodating. They were willing to add lines where ever I wanted and they were very conscious of making sure that I agreed to where to put the faucet on my tub, they even sat there and made sure the handles would work right and the spout would clear the tub once the tile was in. I felt like I was working with my brothers. The HVAC guy is very nice too, but very quiet. He kind of looks like Brian's friend Jim Hopkins. He has been sure to get my permission whenever he had needed to add chases below the ceiling level of the basement and I have learned to love soffits. As long as they are in my basement and not upstairs! The siders are not as clean cut as the guys working inside but they are friendly. I have taken Twix bars, Snickers, Dilly bars and donuts over periodically to keep the morale up. Monday the electrician starts. We have a walk through at 8:00 AM to discuss all the details of where to put outlets and wires and recessed lighting. Then at 9:30 we have a walk through with the home solutions man for cable, phone, security, sound and central vac. Any suggestions are appreciated. We are making wish lists but if you have something that you love or wish you had please share! I'll only put a phone in the bathroom if you promise not to care if I answer it when I am going potty! (Uncle Bob). So it should be a very full week of decisions and requests. Hope you are all well! Love, Em
