Updates on the Cabin Part 3

Posted in Family, and Homesteading

Munchkin and I arrived at the cabin late Monday afternoon. After unpacking the truck, I started looking over what had and had not been done. Sadly, our new contractor and his boss (K & P) had been lied to by the subcontractors. The electric wasn’t done and some of the lines were hot that were sticking out of the outlets. Um, yep – talk about a safety hazard!!! The plumbing hadn’t been touched, and the hvac hadn’t been finished. **sigh** I call D to let him know what’s going on before making phone calls to P & K. Eventually, I…

Updates on the Cabin Part 2

Posted in Family, and Homesteading

Upon arrival home from the cabin, we jumped back into our regular routine as quickly as possible. Being away from home/work/school for a chunk of time means there is a good deal of work to get caught up on. Munchkin was thrilled to be back in TaeKwonDo as she had really missed it. Thanks to the holidays, D didn’t have as much catching up to do as he would have normally, but he still was quite busy. Me? Well, I had a stack of review items to go through, paperwork to be done, and of course, blogging to accomplish. Plus,…
