Still No Power makes for a Hot weekend

We thought we would have power by now, and that this weekend we could accomplish a lot of things! Well still no power for us!  Some city employees were out to the property to mark lines for the electric company, and the work order they received said July 23rd is the start date.  Crossing my fingers that we may have power by Tuesday evening! (trying not to get my hopes up- we have been waiting for the electrical company a long time).

The heating/cooling issue is still just that an issue.  We have quotes, quotes, and quotes, each one worse than the one before.  We have all the parts necessary to hook up the furnace and the air conditioner, yet it is hard to find someone that will hook it all up for under a fortune.  Hopefully we will find someone this week, and get everything hooked up!

On Friday my husband, daughter, and father in law, moved a bunch of boxes to our house. Saturday and Sunday we sorted the boxes and put away kitchen stuff, hung some clothes in the closets, and made a large mess of "stuff" in the rest of the house!

We completed the foyer area, grouted and sealed the tile, painted the closet, and put all the baseboard, and installed the transition bar to the laminate.  The foyer looks great! I love it!

We also completed some of the small projects we had left, hung our towel bars, toilet paper holders, shower rod, some valances, installed the vent pipe for the dryer, and put new stools together.  Overall things are progressing nicely, I am still on edge about getting everything completed, but at least now our stuff is mostly where it belongs.

This morning I woke up to pouring rain, not what I wanted this week, my contractor needs to complete the porch, pour the driveway, side the garage, and rain is not helping.
