Jessica finally blogs...

it has been 17 days since our house closed, that's it just a mere 17 days! however, considering all the work that has been done... it looks more like 2 months worth! we are developing all sorts of mad construction (or maybe de-construction) skills!

a few noteworthy items:

- Shane & Andrea are an amazing, talented duo that should be hired as construction, interior design consultants in any and every remodel/add-on situation... dynamite! and i think we might even have scored some new friends out of it!

- our electricians: JP & Dan are so amazing and efficient that other industry pros are not only impressed, but requesting their info for future projects!

- The Ericksons: Joe hooked us up with some serious internet, cable, phone wiring. Leann cleaned like hell even though the mess continued... thanks for your moral support too! Mo would have to receive the frequent flyer award... always checking out our progress and encouraging the entire time, even when it seems that we might never stop demoing and rip the house down to the foundation. ;-)

- pay plumbers by the project and electricians by the hour! And don't start serving beer until they are at 90% of completion! big smile!

- I need a crowbar of my own (hmm... maybe Shane won't notice if his is gone)! I'm sure I can use it everyday! It's my tool of choice, no doubt about it. Lyrica loves hammers, but for me it's all about the crowbar! love it!

- oh let's see... what else. well, I have to say Katy Cooper has been a trooper! he he! she is always down to help... just let that girl at some flooring that needs to be pried up! get 'er done!

- much thanks to the "tile gods"!!!

- super excited to have a taco wagon sooo close... it's a must and have saved our hungry tummies!

okay, that's it for now! i hope you all are enjoying our somewhat organized chaos!

ta-ta for now...
