The last 2 weeks have been like what I imagine watching paint dry will be like expect there is no paint. There are no walls for that matter. We’ve managed to get the addition foundation walls poured and set and we now have a dirt pile 10 feet tall in the backyard. It was delivered to fill in under the soon-to-be back courtyard if they ever start framing that is.
Right now, it is so slow. Waiting for cement to dry is like watching paint dry. Waiting for the inspectors is like waiting for your turn to check out at Target with a kid screaming in the cart. Lots and lots of waiting and in the mean time, I am frozen waiting on what to do next. I haven’t made that many decisions yet and I feel like I am going to be steamrolled eventually and not prepared. I’ve had some weird dreams. Nothing with naked people but dreams that make you wake up thinking you forgot something.
We need a landscape plan. Don’t really want to pay a company and we would rather look for an individual to help but that doesn’t seem easy to find right now either. We have like 6 weeks before school is out and after that, I will likely be dragging 4 kids with me to any appointment and I can already feel the “That’s fine, whatever”, boiling up in my throat when it comes to what all needs to be selected.
