In the "bad old days", when I was working for a paycheck and expected to deliver results "on time and under budget", missing a schedule was synonymous with losing money. My boss hated that!!! What a pleasure it is that our current project is indeed flexible.
Mike stopped by today to check to see if he needed to pump out the backyard after the torrential rain we experienced last night (he didn't need to) and to tell me that Tony ("the best [tree remover] there is") will not be out to pull the three maple stumps tomorrow. Instead, Vern (outside plumbing) will be here, instead of Thursday, to start the installation of the new sewer line. When Tony will be out to pull the stumps, we don't know. We are still on-schedule to have our meeting tomorrow at noon to discuss the electrical infrastructure issues. I got a note from Bob (landscaping) yesterday saying he will be here as well. Despite my hints, no one has volunteered to cater the meeting.
We did not get out today to visit any of the stained glass shops in town. We instead worked on the half-bath and, if not for my cordless drill running out of battery, we might have finished the job. We still might if I have the stamina to go after it after dinner. Considering I have already had two glasses of wine, my bet is that I will finish it tomorrow morning. Cheers!
