We have a sign.

Rex put his construction sign Across a The Way a couple days ago. Trusses are supposed to arrive today. Guess what? Raining. Yep, that's right. Snow, rain, whatever to delay construction.

Across The Way

My lot is still sitting there untouched. Snow is still on the ground. There has been some melting today. Oh me, hurry up spring.

Maybe next week

Glenn talked to our contractor yesterday. He may get started next week. (Weather permitting). We have missed every winter storm so far this year. Maybe the one predicted for next week will miss also. I'm anxious to get started.

Still no construction

The contractor dropped by last week and brought some paperwork. He said he got tied up on a job in Paducah and he should be getting to us soon. I'm ready to get this behind us. However, it will be spring break soon and I should have more time to do some of the little things. On a separate note, I am looking for a new church. I went to Community Fellowship in Hickory last Sunday. This may be my new church family. Prayers for guidance.

New house update.

I'm still sitting in my house looking 'across the way' at a vacant lot. No construction yet. It is freezing cold now so I'm not about the concrete slab. I think it needs to be above freezing to por concrete. But, my husband and I have both been sick so I'm not sure we would have felt like doing anything with the house. My 'Pinterest' boards are full of ideas. The plan itself has been decided and can't be changed (trusses have been ordered). The exterior colors were picked long ago and I haven't changed my mind on that. I've found the cutest cabinet knobs that have the craftsman flair. Can't wait to order them. I've been going back and forth on the backsplash. I don't want these really cute tiles that stick out from the wall. That seems like a cleaning nightmare. I'm leaning toward a stenciled design that also has a craftsman look. I thought I wanted a solid door but found a really cue door at Lowes. It's a crafstman door with a small window at the top and the grids are silver. Hopefully construction will start soon and I will post a progress report.
