Day 163
Yesterday, the carpet installers arrived to lay the carpet, but since the furnace had not yet been turned on, it was way too cold in the house for them to unroll it. They did do some prep work of laying out the padding and nailing down the tack strips.
I think that the furnace is ready to be fired up but is waiting for electricity. I expected the electricians to be back on the job yesterday, but they weren't. Most of our light have been hooked up and they just have a bit more work to do.
The plumbers worked last Friday and have all the sinks and fixtures in place except for the kitchen because we are still waiting for the countertop. They have the hot water tanks in place, but are waiting for the softener to be installed before filling them. They also began setting the toilets.
Also, last Friday the closet shelves were installed.

thank you so, so much for sharing your heart with me on my blog. You hit the nail right on the head when you identified foolish pride. I appreciate that burst of truth this morning. It was well placed and right on. Blessings to you today!
Hi! I just discovered your blog this evening, and enjoyed looking through another familys' home building journey! We too have poured concrete walls, but did two stories of that (we're pretty far from the volunteer fire dept.) Hope you are in your house now! Blessings!

hay its really an amazing Blog, i was searing some blogs of my interest and find yours,
Very nice. The wood work on the entry-way posts looks amazing! Can't wait to see the finished shots!
Nice detailing, nice color choices! Did you design this yourself or did you have help?
It is truly a pleasure to see someone in love with the building process - I hope that living in this home is as fullfilling an experience for you as building it obviously is!

I've been a home builder for 20+ years now, and I can honestly tell you that this is exactly the sort of thing that more homeowners should be doing! I encourage every new homeowner I meet to share their experiences, but you've taken that to an entirely new level. Fantastic work! Best of luck with the home, please feel free to contact me if you had any additional questions about the process!

Why didn't you keep up with your blog? Interested to see the finished project. Your home is stunning!
Wow, what a great site! I am a custom home builder in Scottsdale Arizona, and I really enjoyed looking at the different types of finishes that you used in your home. Many of the construction techniques are the same or very similar as you can imagine, however the use of local building products and techniques is what made this blog so interesting to me. Thank you so much for sharing your work. Great Job!
As the real estate market contracts, buyers and sellers have become harder and harder to find. Agents are finding they have to spend much more time and a lot more money to get a shrinking share of the real estate leads. Agents enjoy an abundant number of well qualified and highly motivated buyers and sellers. Imagine not having to waste hours of your time sitting open house, and instead spend that time showing qualified buyers homes to buy, Or instead of floor or kiosk duty, spending that time writing offers Agents spend 100% of their time on the activities that directly make them money, like showing property and writing contracts. Getting the business is no longer the hardest part of the business.
