Earlier this week the bank inspector came out and deemed that we were far enough along to be considered half way done. This means they'll release more money so I can continue to pay the contractor so he'll keep working. I got a call from the bank on Friday telling me they'd be sending a check on Monday. Good thing they called though because when she told me the amount it was wrong and I would have been really upset next week when I got the check and then had to try to fix the mess with the wrong amount.
We also have work starting on the library and I'm super excited about that. There's a big pile of dirt and a bobcat sitting where the library will eventually be. The extra space will be nice and I know this is something that Rich has always wanted.
I've been replacing some of our contents that were lost and managed to update my paperwork yesterday. Now I just need to scan all the receipts and email them to the insurance adjuster. I also need to follow up on some paperwork that he should have been updating. I've given up on quick responses from him though. It took over a month to get the initial scope of work from him and three months to get the updated content list. That seems really excessive to me. Then again, two weeks from when I call to get the halfway inspection by the bank until when we might possibly see money also seems excessive to me.
So I guess we're halfway done and yet the contractor is still saying that we'll be in the house mid to late October. I know things go faster once the drywall is up but....the drywall still isn't up.
