We have forms for our basement!!

We were asleep this morning when we woke up to the sounds of wood being thrown into the hole! It was a few of the guys from DorAnn homes coming to make some forms for the basement posts and for the cement walls to sit on.

When you get a couple of guys together it doesn't take long and they got it done. The longest thing after they finished work was waiting for the gravel and cement to arrive.

They made quick work of it. Not tomorrow they will be back to take the wood away and then we will be ready to get the walls started! Yeah!

Pretty eh??

permits....always with the permits!

We finally got our permits! Yeah!! Today I got a call to go and pick up the permits at City Hall. This now means that I have a lot on my plate again. First call Dan, then Jamie, then rancor, then Jamie....etc... and make arrangements to get the old house down and payment for people and that stuff! And then DorAnn can do what they have to do.

There has been a slight set back. Jamie forgot to move the house north , and I forgot to remind him so even though we have the permits we must get permission to move it north to meet the land variances. Jamie assures me that it is only a slight set back. I am hoping.

Regardless the house will be torn down on Monday. A lot of wrangling but it will be done. I'm sure the kids will enjoy it. It will be something I hope they enjoy and will never see again.
