Off Track

The other title I thought of was ‘up in smoke.’

Yes, I got the roof on. And yes we are making progress.

Always before, with the cost overruns and delays I could fall back on a good economy and rising real estate values. Now that cushion feels particularly thin!

Speaking of smoke, the chimney guy has put me off more times then I can count. Turns out he set a 4 and 8 pipe into the concrete, without noticing the fireplace called for a 4 and 7 pipe. Imagine trying to find a 4 to 4, 7 to 8 adapter! The pipe store suggested I get a different fireplace.

The focus has to be getting back on track. Chimney adapter is supposed to be here tomorrow. Elevator gets installed next week. Floor heat should be done this week. Windows and doors early in December.
