We Have Walls!

We had our weekly PM meeting on Thursday and they were working on the floor. All the walls for the basement had been moved down there and it looked like at least the outside walls were in place with the inner walls to come later. At this point, they're trying to get the house under roof as quickly as possible, so they'll finish up the basement later. As of Thursday, they had planned on trying to get some of the walls up later that day. My parent rode by today and saw they've already made a lot of progress on the first floor. According to the PM, he hopes the framing will be done by next weekend and the roofers will be out right after that.

While this blog is about building our new home, we're also in the process of selling our old home which is proving to just as difficult as I feared and it's not even on the market yet! With our full time schedules and now all the holiday festivities we're so behind and now it's definitely looking like we won't have it sold by the time we need to close on the new one. Fortunately, we have other financial arrangements if that's the case, but it would have been better to not have to mess with all that. On the positive side, it's highly unlikely that we'll have to be out of this house before the new one is ready. That was probably the thing I was worried the most about, aside from actually selling the darn thing. Hopefully someone out there is house shopping in the next 2 months...
