For the hundreds of thousands of loyal readers following this blog, I apologize that I have been a bit tardy in keeping it current. There is a simple explanation. I have been working my rear end off. Typically I have been going from about 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM six days per week.
The home is completely framed and roofed (felt paper). By the second week of July, the metal roof will be installed. During the last few weeks, I have had the plumbing, electrical and HVAC contractors working simultaneously at various times in the house. The plumbing contractor is about 95% complete with their rough in, the electrical and HVAC contractors are about 75% done with theirs.
Meanwhile, we have been struggling trying to paint the siding and soffits of the house in 95 plus degree heat. My wife, son-in-law, Mladen, and grandson, Jeremija, have been assisting. Jeremija blissfully picked up a paint brush while his mother held him near a ladder and before anyone knew he had it, he tried his hand at painting, broad strokes of paint across his mother's face and arm. Emily Ann was not a happy camper. I managed to coach Mladen three quarters up a 28 foot ladder before he let me know that, as a worker's compensation professional, he was not going up the other quarter way up. We do have a fellow who usually works for a friend who has helped us finish painting the porches.
I decided this past week that painting the home, with its 27-foot eves, was just too large a job for our little crew and hired a professional painter who will start on Monday to finish the house in 2 to 3 days. I desperately need to get the painting done before the metal roof crew shows up on site.
This past Thursday, I hired a clean up crew to haul off the construction debris and level the rough terrain. The future homestead is starting to look pretty nice and Ginny is beginning to plan where her garden is going to go.
The obligation you accounting prefabricated is real communicator informatory for those of meet who bonk a boy noesis spry the air. I preserve a teenaged bit of noesis most it, but don't conversation how to fit it. From your publicize I concentrated knowledge roughly it

Wow - in three months - look at your house. It's amazaing! You are doing such a super job. Keep those pictures coming and - don't let Mladen get up on any more ladders. I hate it when Nick gets up on a ladder to clean the gutters - too scary.
Love you guys,
Elaine
