Framing has to finish, windows, doors, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, flooring, drywall, paint, roofing, garage slab, garage door, excavation of the driveway down 12&#8243;, new asphalt, fencing, landscaping, shed, garage floor covering&#8230;.but who&#8217;s counting?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>16 Weeks of living with my in-laws 30 minutes north of our home driving Matilda 30 minutes to day care every day, living out of suitcases and sleeping next to our baby in bed. it&#8217;s been tough for everyone. We still have about 2 months before we&#8217;re even close to done. Already 4 months in so 2 months doesn&#8217;t feel like that far away but we&#8217;re thinking by the 1st week of May as earliest completion date.
