Living In Mayhem

We've been living in absolute mayhem. We cleared out all the boxes in the basement last weekend and ditched all the empty boxes. We turn around to have the air shipment delivered on Friday. That was pretty minor. 15 boxes in total and most of it was a surprise. I received an "iron pot" which really was the laundry hamper with some kitchen glasses in it. Who knew I would see some of my kitchen? The cupcake liners arrived which wasn't supposed to be here and I received 4 knives, 4 forks and 10 spoons. Go figure.

The construction is still ongoing. Garage doors were ripped out yesterday and the center support beam has been removed. We had two large steel beams installed overhead to replace the center support. It's great that we're going to be able to park the cars without having to maneuver around the pole. Today, the opening of the garage has been removed to make one large opening and hopefully, we can have the new garage door installed and working by early next week. There's a ton of work to do in the garage that involves rewiring electricity and rerouting the control box for the door.

Alas, the deck is about 60% done, the siding on the house is not complete and the gutters are supposed to get installed next week sometime. The rock, well it looks like that's not going to be evicted anymore. I've resigned myself to the fact that we'll have to be friendly with the rock. I don't like the fact that the rock is squatting in the driveway but, accept that even squatters have rights.
