Warning, lots of pictures

This week has been a crazy one at the Borrowman home once again. I am very grateful for public transportation and that I haven't had to spend gas money to get to work (I got a free UTA Pass so don't have to pay for train or trax either). However, I quickly learned that working 12 hour shifts and having a 2 hour commute each way leaves very little time for sleep. Sadlly I had to buy a parking pass this week and will have to start driving to work sometimes so I can get more than 6 hours of sleep.

About every 2-3 days we have gotten a phone call from our loan officer, agent, or contractor with another "problem." I swear the loan officer has every piece of paper we own and letters from everyone we know, our carpet was discontinued so we had to pick out new stuff, which is now on backorder. We have doors that won't shut and others that won't open. What a pain.

Because of the crazyness I hadn't been able to go see the house until today and am very frustrated with the situation right now. Luckily in the week since I have been there they've gotten a bunch done and I ended up very excited. I took lots of pictures!

The outside is almost done, they graded our lawn so it will be ready with the proper slope to keep us from flooding our neighbors apparently. There is still some touch up paint and the concrete on the foundation to be done but that's about it.

Our back steps are missing a railing, but at least they are there. (Kinda dumb to have a window under the steps huh?)

Our entry way, whick I'm hoping gets weather stipping around the door. I don't want to see daylight there.

The fire place mantel is in!! George's home is almost ready!! (The Prayer at Valley Forge is going over the mantel. Monty's already told George he's moving) The Living room

The kitchen finally looks like a kitchen. The cupboards aren't quite black, they are a very dark brown. Our appliances are there but sitting in the living room still.

The dining area.

Master bedroom

2 pictures of the master bathroom

Downstairs bathroom. It's the only room finished downstairs because we didn't want to have to do the plumbing and tile work ourselves.

Well, I guess that's enough pictures. July 13 is supposed to be our closing date as long as our carpet comes in in time. In Utah you have to wait 48-72 hours after closing to get keys though. Kinda dumb but oh well.
