Maybe Next Week

Around 8:30 am yesterday morning, "Our" Mike showed up for a couple of hours and did some sorting and cleanup in the garage. Our assumption is that he is preparing for the eventual grading of the floors. He departed without talking with us before 11:00 am. The debris pile in the garage has grown again.

No roofing this week except on Tuesday. I guess I misunderstood Bret (roofing) when he told me on Tuesday that they would finish the roofing of the main house this week. What he must have actually said was that they were finished roofing on the main house for the week (ha ha). The roofers have done a decent job, but like other crafts working on our project, the job has taken much longer than we were told to expect. I was originally told it would take a couple of days to do the roofing. I found this hard to believe. Once they actually started on Monday 9, I was told they would be finished by Saturday March 14. It is now March 20 and the main house is not complete, half the garage is done and they have not started on the sunroom who's felt is starting to blow off. I do not have a new estimate for completion. Why waste time asking? Assuming they show back up, I expect them to finish early next week.

Mike sent a note yesterday evening saying that he and "Bobcat" Tom will be here Monday to do the grading and graveling.

While touring the neighbor this morning with Spenser, one our neighbors called out to us asking "when are you going to finish that room?". All I could say was, "DON'T GET ME STARTED!".

About 3:30 pm this afternoon, a two dump trucks showed up and deposited a pile of gravel in the alley behind the garage. While the pile is partially in the right-of-way, it appears that you can still drive around it so I don't have to call Mike to complain about that. Previously, it took two truck loads to gravel the alley immediately behind the garage, so I doubt what was delivered today is going to be enough to rock the garage and sunroom plus re-gravel the alley as I asked Mike to do. Perhaps he will have more delivered Monday after they use up this pile.
