nlbarberI got myself moving Friday morning thinking the contractor's people would show up early. Nope--just the scheduled "first call" HVAC routine service, and then Georgia Power showed up around 9 to make the final switch-over of the electrical service connection. Around 11:30 I called Mary to see what was happening, and she said someone was on their way back from Jasper (in north Georgia) with the last trim and the floor of the island cabinet. I headed off on to Weight Watchers and then on a long round of errands.
Got home...no work crew. Mary finally called after 4 with a sigh to say, "You know things don't always go according to plan..." So Monday's now supposed to be the push, and the cleaner, and maybe the final DeKalb County inspection.
Mary called back sometime after 6 (on a Friday night) to say Betsy asked if she (Mary) could come pick up the "punch list draw" check--this amount gets almost all of it, with about $1,000 held out for completion of everything. I wrote the check and left it for her, as I was bouncing back and forth between my house and next door cooking at both places.
