The Week in Review

It's Mother's Day, and things have settled down for this moment; here's what occurred this week.
Lloyd: Got back from vacation and managed us all, hopefully feeling refreshed
Chris Dowling: Completed nearly all the extension jambs and sills for the windows and doors, changed the kitchen island configuration to allow refrigerator clearance on the stair side, built and/or altered a few spaces to allow shelving, toyed with using a salvage bannister for the stairway, started the tub surround and generally kept moving 24/7.
Claudia Dowling: Brought up the 1950s Chambers stove she found in Staten Island (thanks, Ted)
Electric: Erickson's team showed up and got ready to run cable from the telephone pole to the house on Monday, will then tear through the house wiring.
Ductwork: Completed, tied into the furnace
Richardson Wells: Started with final water lines in cellar, had to fly away for a water emergency
Sam Savage and Paul Cook: Got most of the South and West sides of the house shingled.
John Larter: Backhoed the utility trenches closed and graded around three sides of the house; will start septic tomorrow.
Erin: Stripped down the french doors and put a coat of lead binding paint on them between clouds of sawdust, painted duct sealer on the cellar seams of the ductwork
Luna: Was mad because she wasn't invited to the site as she barks at the backhoe in an annoying fashion
Flip: Earned the money to pay for it all

As you can see, a productive week. More this week; we'll see how we do
