come on in and check it out

So I have some pics of the house . I snapped these on Saturday because I didn't even go over there Friday until after dark .This is the front of the house. As you can see it is really starting to come together . By Tuesday I should have a roof and then one day this week both of my porches should be added . I am hoping they start the vinyl siding this week as well since they have already delivered it. Let's go inside !














This is a pic of my dinning room window and half of the back door . I was amazed at how different everything is starting to look now and I can't wait to see the inside coming together.














This is our front door . As you can see my two youngest were heading out as I snapped this one .














Here is a pic of my back door and the window that will be over the sink . The kitchen is the one room that I am so ready to see come to life because that is where I spend most of my time at .














These two windows are of the windows in our living room . It is odd how the insides look smaller with just the interior walls up . Once the sheetrock goes on the rooms will start looking a bit bigger .














That is all the pics I have right now . Actually I have pics of every room in more than one angle but I don't want to bore you all with them .

Later today while I am running errands I am going to stop over there and get some pics of the roof trusses going up . Our framers normally have a crane brought in to lift the roof trusses up for them but since we have had a lot of rain lately the ground is way too soft to hold a crane so they are going to lift the trusses by hand .

I will be in and out today because I have a lot to do . We spent Saturday packing up a few things and today we are going to take those things to our storage building . One thing I do want to say before I go is GO COLTS!!!!! Woohoo! Going to the super bowl for the first time in 36 years , oh yeah baby !

I would like to thank Jillie for a wonderful conversation over the phone yesterday evening . I had never talked to a blogger friend on the phone until then and it was very exciting to do so . Jillie and I exchanged cell numbers a couple of weeks ago while chatting in IM and yesterday was the first chance that either of us have had to call. I came home from church yesterday and about three hours later decided to see if my cell phone was dead . It surprised me that I had a voice mail, what surprised me the most was hearing Jillies voice . I knew upon hearing her who it was because she had told me she would call when she had time . I immediately called her back . Thank you Jillie and I hope we can chat over the phone again sometime soon !

I hope all of you have a good day ! I have to get going or I will be running the entire day . Be safe and take care !

That doesn't look like a guest house.

Breazy said...

Leslie..LOL! I will get them going on the guest house soon . I hope you are feeling okay!

James Goodman said...

wow, the house is coming along nicely. :D

Breazy said...

James...thank you ! It is coming along very fast which is a good thing. Everybody kept saying that we picked the wrong time of year to build but I bed to differ with them . If we were building in the summer this wouldn't be going as fast since there would be more houses the workers would have to work on . By doing it this time of year they can get more men in each crew over there .

Hello, I come to you via Lime's page and glad I did. I love seeing houses under construction. I am about to begin a 30x50 metal shop with a 1 bedroom apartment on one end of it (the joys of being a batchelor haha)

Mornin Breazy,
Do you work?

I promised jillie I'll behave until I know you better.
I'm sure it's fun and exciting to watch your house being built.
Make sure they are installing the essentials such as wiring and indoor plumbing.
It also helps to speak Spanish.

Also leave them a bottle of soap, construction guys are notorious for not watching their hands after going into one of those portable potty things.

Thanks for stopping by and welcome to the family.heh heh heh

G-Man... good morning ! I work at home for my husband . He owns a hardwood flooring company that he built up himself so I stay home and do accounting for him , I also run all of his errands so sometimes I am in and out thru the day.

TC.....it is very exciting! We have been very lucky thus far because all of our workers have been English speaking .

You can behave as you choose , I promise it won't scare me off! LOL! Thank you !

Long time blah blah...

It has certainly been a while since I've been here. Sometimes I think about deleting this blog and being done but I also think I am goin...
