Nervous Breakdown

I knew coming into this house project that there would be good days and bad, but this week I am working on my second nervous breakdown since we started building our house (the first one was in May in case you missed it).

Well last week we had the incident of the drywall delivery guys ruining my two windows. I found out that it will take two weeks to get the windows ordered and installed so that puts a halt on the drywall until the end of the month.

In addition, this week the stucco guys applied the main color that we had chosen to the boarders of the house and the boarder color to the main part of the house. So just reversed. I didn't notice that they were doing the wrong color until they were finished, because I didn't know how much the colors changed when they dried. Now for those people who have seen it, it actually looks good and some people are going to prefer it this way. But with the stone and roofing that we have already picked out, we are going to have them fix it. But they can't do that until we get the windows in. All of the pictures are of the house with the wrong colors.


The only consolation that I have is that we are going to Cedar City to the Shakespearean festival all next week so hopefully I can get it back together after a nice long rest.


Also we were just looking at the house one night and all of a sudden there were other people inside. It was the drywall mudder guy and his entire family just walking through the house. Nice huh. Anyway he thought he was starting right away on the mudding, but I had to inform him that because of the window issue, it would be 2 weeks. Of course I had to explain this several times because of our language barrier. He couldn't believe it, neither can I.
