Week 9

It's hard to believe it's been 9 weeks since we moved out of our sweet, perfect little house on Rutledge and became gypsys.  We spent our first week (the last week of July) at my dad's before heading off to the beach for week.  We came back sort of homeless.  I never thought that would happen!  We spent 6 weeks after that with the Harrison's, last week with the Broomes, and we this week at the Bulmans while they are in Arizona.  I'm starting to go a little crazy, I think.

Anyway - the contractor and painter swear that we can move into the basement tomorrow!  I told Tyler yesterday that if they knew what was good for them and if he didn't want a crazy pregnant woman moving in with him, they'd get it done.  Haha.  I got an email from Graham today saying that moving day on Wednesday is a go.  I did go by this afternoon, though, and there are a few things that still seem unfinished.  I don't think there was a sealant on the floor over the 2nd coat, and there are a few areas of molding that need another coat of paint.  I'm not very happy about that.  I need complete completion.  I think my ocd-ness is starting to kick in a little and my frustration level is increasing.  Graham promised to have all of those things addressed.  Luckily, even if those things aren't done, we can still move in, and I have the day off tomorrow for my second doctor's appointment.  Hopefully we will be able to get lots done.  Unfortunately, even if we get moved in, we will have no cable/internet until October 6th.  I'm reminding myself though how nice it will be to actually be part way in our house and sleeping in our own bed!  Woohoo! 

I feel like I've been slow to update...but I also feel like things have been slow moving at the house.  I know I said that last week too, so it must just not be me being impatient.  Or maybe it is.  Either way, this week they have fixed the crack in the ceiling that goes from the dining room to the master bedroom, added/replaced the molding in the kitchen and den, hung light fixtures in the basement, and continued "dressing up" the interior doors and closet doors with trim.  I guess there were a couple of weeks there where so much was happening that maybe that's why it seems more on the slowish side now. 

Fingers crossed that we will have all of our things moved into the basement and I can post a new picture in the next couple of days!
