Because I know many of you are waiting and wondering what's going on with the house project, here's a brief update.
We just yesterday got numbers back from the excavator/concrete contractor as well as a quote on the mechanical system, so are now waiting to hear back from the framer and the lumberyard (the framer is just quoting labor since we're acting as the general contractor).
Matt had a chance last night to work on putting dimensions onto the drawings, with the hopes that he can print and take it to the City for our permit this Friday, but that might end up getting pushed over until Monday. We're still hoping for a June 1 (or thereabouts) start date, depending on when we hear back from the last people and how long it takes to process the permit!
In the meantime, the kids and I are busy (still) moving branches out of the side yard to where they will wait in the front yard until the city's big fall bonfire, and also moving perennials out of the various gardens that will get disturbed by trucks, or will get re-graded as the dirt from the hole gets dumped on top of them to avoid having to pay to truck the dirt off the site.
Nothing too exciting yet, but things are happening getting ready for the exciting stuff!
