In case you were wondering ...
Building a house sucks. If your builder is a Republican, it sucks even more. If he's a Rebulican Church-going "Christian", it sucks more than that. The major suck is his version of "quality" when you can do better yourself on a bad day when you've never done it before.

Just sayin' ...

1. Hi AirmensMom!
So nice to see you!
We're not building -- just trying to get a little remodeling done. The roofer was suppose to be here in September -- guess what it's October. He better show up this week.

2. I sure do know the scenario!
Our fireplace insert was delivered in June. It's still not installed. Guess we're waiting for the prices to go up or something.

Nice to see you, too! :hi:

3. It's really a bad situation
The carpenter is the husband of a wonderful friend that volunteers in my classroom. I am trying so hard not to be really upset.
He said he was coming this weekend, so I gave him $1000 and he never showed. If he doesn't come this week it is going to start getting cold and rainy.
I'm discouraged.
When will your house be completed?

4. That does sound bad.
Did you call to see what happened?

Um ... never at this point. :shrug:
