Extension Update on Mom's House

Front of mom's house - her poor flower beds

Well it has started - the construction on mom's house.

If you don't know what I am talking about you can go here and here to find out what is going on.



On the pile of dirt are bulbs that mom is
trying to salvage to replant

Last night mom signed the contract and it has finally stopped raining long enough for them to start digging for the sewer line to the back of the house for the extension.

It took a little longer for them to start too because they had to talk to the city about going through the main line instead of the one that goes to the house - the builder put the darn thing under mom's driveway so they needed a waiver to dig in a different place.  Hello, under the driveway - what were you thinking?????

Both of us are now more excited and freaking scared because we don't know what to expect.  I have an idea of what it is going to look like but I have to see it to believe it!!!  Plus now it is hitting me that I need to start working on my house to get it ready to be put on the market - now how scary is that!!!!
