Week 6

Bad weather continues in Indianapolis.  I think rain led to another 1 maybe even a 2nd day of no construction this week.   Mike had submitted the 1st draw on the construction loan earlier in the week.  Once I realized that it had been done, it only took a few hours to get everything cleared at the bank and ready to write Mike a check.  Way to go National Bank of Indianapolis!

We packed up the van and ventured out on Saturday for a little bit of shopping for the Giving Tree at St Monica and some pizza at Arni's before checking out the progress made in week 6.  Too bad the contruction guys weren't around this Saturday, Holly had made them cookies.  Now I guess I'll be forced to eat them all!

Apparently we have plumbing and appliances already!

Living room looking toward the kitchen.  Note the difference in height of the ceiling joists in the kitchen and the living room in the foreground as well as the tall single support beam.  The living room has an 11ft ceiling (2 ft popup) that is visible here.

Living room again looking toward the staircase.  Note again the 2ft pop up of living room versus the entryway.

I'm standing in our stairway looking out over the decking of the 2nd floor.  2ft popup on the right will have a bedroom and the laundry room.

Looking from the other side back toward the pop up and the stairway.

Well according to weather.com it's looking like more rain again this week.  Chance on Wednesday and likely on Thursday.  Holly and I plan to stop by on Friday afternoon before we drive south for Galey Christmas in Santa Claus.  I hope you enjoy the new format, Blogger finally made some much needed updates to their website.
