Under the Gun - Getting in the Yard Everything Done
I've all but written off the grass. I was thinking it would come back in time for this party we're having Saturday, but that's clearly NOT going to happen.
But....the rest of the stuff? I assumed it was a slam dunk - everything would be done by today at the latest. Guess what? MOST everything isn't done yet. The contractor hasn't been around for 6 days. In fact, he called me back last night after I left him messages for the past five days. He's apparently taken another job. I begged him to come today after he's done and get the electric done. He thinks he can get it done this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon. If he doesn't, I'm sure I'll write a post about him specifically....
I've also had to quickly find another contractor to install the stone on the fireplace. It showed up over the weekend. This was on the original contractor's contract, but with so little time, I needed to turn elsewhere.
That's the box of corners - a little bit of deception to make people think that the stones are full-width. I won't be home today when he shows up, so I have to have a little faith in his abilities to get this right. He has 48 hours.
