Uh Oh---Better get PEPCO

Time is ticking and everything with the construction of the house is on schedule.  The hardwood floors are being done today and carpet on Monday. Now everything lies in PEPCO's hands.  They were supposed to start digging trenches on yesterday but it got pushed back to Monday.  Depending on how swiftly  they work will determine if this will affect our closing day.

Our PM wants to have adequate time to test everything once the electric is on.  As much as I don't want to add ONE MORE DAY to that countdown, I want him to test, test, and retest!  I am sure it is much easier to get things done on the front end, then scheduling a time to do it after we move in...NO THANK YOU!  I want to have as little go wrong as possible!

I am not going to let the PEPCO thing stress me out because what will be, will be, and things will be fine.
One thing that is still weirding me out...You should see our street.  Homes are going up left and right.  I mean there may be 4 homes left and yet STILL have seen NOT ONE NEIGHBOR.  What the heck is going on?  I need to meet these people.  I have big plans for my street.  We've got to have a block party at the close of the summer and we need to get cracking.  I wish you all could be my r-neighbors (REAL neighbors) It would be something like this:

How fun!  You see Noey is inside...you know why don't you?? Because just like on our blogs, she got there first.  Have you gotten to a post yet that Noey didn't beat you to? NOPE NOT "NEVER" lol. Enjoy your vacation!  Trust me the Atlantis is so gorgeous you will absolutely love it there!  Take your own snacks--food is ridiculousness high. (All American Hot Dog $12)

  3. LOL! Don't worry about PEPCO, I'm hopefully they will get it done in time for closing. Not sure what to say about the neighbors, maybe they just come at different times of the day? I had to look at the pictures twice to figure out it was us...so slow today!

  8. OMG. That is funny. We did one with my car and the cat on the front porch - the cat and the car were just about the same size. Your photoshop effort is so much more sophisticated!!

  10. This is cute! I wanna come to the parrrtay! lol...I'm not sure if I mentioned it, but your stone is beautiful! I always wanted a house with a stone front, however with the courtland I didnt think they used enough stone on the front, but your victoria falls is gorgeous and really looks like partial stone...
