House

Woo Hoo!! The house got delivered today! Three of the four pieces were waiting in the road across the street from my driveway when I drove home. The 4th arrived a couple of hours later, and the truck pulling it broke down upon arrival. Unfortunately that was one of the bottom pieces, so they didn't actually get the house set on the foundation today, but they did manage to get all the trucks on the property (I didn't see this, Deanna did. I'd like to know how they got them all in there, going to have to look in the morning). The crane they were going to use unfortunately has a job with VDOT tomorrow, so they may not get it put on the foundation until Friday. Hopefully things will progress quickly from there. I've talked to one of the plumbing guys about getting the tankless water heaters, and he is going to be getting me prices. I'm also talking to ANOTHER plumber (why we have 2 I don't know) about placement of the rough-in plumbing for the bathroom in the basement. Unfortunately the septic tank doesn't sit low enough to have the bathroom in the corner we wanted it (the one under the master bath), so it looks like they're going to be running pipes through the basement ceiling to the other side of the basement. Ah well. We're all very excited that it is finally here!!
