Follow along as we rebuild and return to normal after losing our home in a fire

Walkthrough

Yesterday, my mom and I met the contractor and construction supervisor at the house for a walk through.  The framing is mostly done (except for where we were going to put a pocket door but now we're not.  They were in the process of spraying the smell-killing stuff on the studs so the smoke smell doesn't leach out of the walls.  Yay!  (It's been a little delayed this week because of the temp.)

We talked about outlets, lights, doors, cabinets, where to put the sink in the kitchen, how to build out the pantry, etc.  The back porch is now a sun room and smaller than before but big enough.  I think it's going to be so much more useful with windows that can be closed to keep out the dust but opened when we want to.  I'm really excited about the change!

I felt really good about the walk through.  They gave us some good ideas and get what I want.  Electric work measurements for cabinets will start to happen next week, pending weather.  Today, my mom and I are going to look at doors at Lowes.

I wish we could just snap our fingers and be home but at least it's coming along.
