Water, Electricity and More!
This entry is part of “The House Files”, a series of articles detailing the phases of construction on our new home.
Work on the house has continued at a steady pace over the past couple of weeks. The electrical wiring and plumbing has been mostly completed, and we had the house pre-wired for a security system. Our old security system was a very large baseball bat. I recently went off the steroids, but I can still cause semi-permanent brain damage. Keep that in mind.
Although I realize its all part of working towards the goal, this hasn’t been the most exciting phase of the construction process. Things are going to pick up in the coming week, after we walk the house with the supervisor, and the sheetrock goes up. After that, the inside will start looking more like an actual house, and less like a frame building from the Old West.
We had our final design center appointment last week, and managed to change several of our selections multiple times before Nicole’s compulsive need to apologize kicked into overdrive and she started foaming at the mouth. The design consultant didn’t seem surprised by our strange behavior, so I didn’t feel bad about acting like she wasn’t there. She returned the favor by asking the same question five times.
This week’s photo album is super sized, but still better for you than a McDonald’s salad. The photos are mostly of the wiring and plumbing, with a few miscellaneous images, including the master tub and shower floor.
