House moves on.....slowly

Things have slowed down with the house since the middle of last week. It seems that the framing crew for the house can't seem to figure out the angle of the porch roof.
The crew also doesn't seem to be working off of the plans that were drawn, and so the porch is also a foot narrower than it should be. The construction manager from Blitz came down on Tuesday and told us that the porch would be fixed.

The plumbers arrived on Monday but were surprised to find the house was up. They came prepared to do the rough in plumbing with the trackhoe. They refused to hand dig for the rough-in, so they just left for the day.
Mike called plumbing company and was told that a crew would be sent out Tuesday to hand dig and do the rough in plumbing. That part is done and inspected and we are ready for the concrete guy to come back and fill in the plumbing trenches get ready to pour the concrete.
We had planned to pour concrete early this week, but with the plumbing delay and the holiday we now plan to pour concrete on Tuesday morning. Hopefully by the end of the week, the Blitz construction crew will be back to finish the shell.
We have the windows and doors on site and they will be installed by the construction crew.
When all of that is done Mike and I can start the framing on the inside.

Rough in plumbing completed

Brenda has now finally found a part-time job. It will surely help and give her something to do. She will be working for Scrubtastic, and as the name implies, she will be selling scrubs. Her initial schedule for the month of July is for 15 hours a week. She said the young man that hired her was really impressed with her, especially since she made the effort to come back as a follow-up.

Brenda went to the Bartlett fireworks show last night and met some family and friends from church. I didn't go because I had worked all day yesterday and was too tired. I was in bed before 8:30 PM.
If the show was as good as it was last year. I'm sure she had a good time.

I will continue to keep you informed as the house and Brenda's job progresses.

Tata for now.
