Getting Anxious

We are getting anxious to break ground.

We ordered windows and the HVAC system this week. The window order was a nail-biter, but I succeeded in adding the phrase "too matchy-matchy" to the project manager and the building supplier's vocabulary. I could hear the "cha-chings" in my head, but I want to make the right choices for this home while being a good steward of the money we've allocated for this project. Sometimes, I have quickly found, it's a delicate balance.

Randy has cleared some of the lot himself, and we expect clearing for the house will begin soon. This week, we hope engineering reports will be finalized so we can proceed with permitting.
