Dec 18th update
Waiting is the name of the game in construction. Just talked to the electrician and he has called for an inspection to get temporary power. This means he is almost done. After the inspection, Cynthia has to call the power company to get the hook-up. Then the electrician can check everything and call for a final. More waiting.
I also talked to Cynthia today. She is excited but willing to wait. She has some elderly friends that have their house done so she is trying to get them to move out of their trailer. She wants them in first. She talked of getting her Christmas tree up and running an extension cord from the trailer if she has too. Her decorations were in the attic during the storm so they survived. She said she has the lights on the tree by the side walk on. She has been out looking for drapes but can not find any she likes. Too bad some of you shoppers couldn’t help her out. I guess a few of you have sent gifts, she is so thankful. She said ” didn’t they give enough?”
HandsOn will be closing down on the 21st so the cabinets that arrive tomorrow may have to wait till after the New Year. But the temporary sink will work til then. Wait, wait, wait.
For those of you that have inquired about my adjustment to life at home let me tell you it is hard. No more bacon and pancakes every morning. Toby won’t let me wear the same dirty sweat shirt every day. I have to drink water out of a glass and not out of a can. Toby still lets me stand up at dinner and tell about my day, but I think she is starting to lose interest. The hardest part is not having all my new friends around.
Have a merry happy holiday,
David Kramer
