Who's Visiting Today?

Thursday, December 22, 2011

So close.. and then the catch.

Today we had our walk through of the house.  It looks amazing.  I absolutely can't wait to move in!!!!

BUT...

we won't move on the 28th as planned.

The carpet we special ordered was discontinued and they can't get our second choice here on time. 

and...

The counter tops are behind schedule.

The general contractor was very apologetic and shared that his hands are tied.  Most sub contractors have reduced their work force and aren't keeping supplies in house as they have in the past.  Demand is down and things they used to count on simply don't come as quickly.  Everyone was working very hard to make this happen but the subcontractors haven't been able to supply what we need. 

So, as disappointed as I am, I understand.  We are grateful for what we will be getting and we would rather it be done well than done hastily.  We are blessed that we don't "need" to move out and we won't be hindered in any way (other than psychologically!) by waiting another 2 days.

December 30th it is.
