Name:
Location: Arizona, United States

Welcome to my site. I will be Chronicling the construction of our new home. Here is a brief history of my experiance in this area. I moved every few years as a child. As an adult I stayed in one house for 25 years, but helped remodel it four times. From a minor bath redo to adding an entire second story to the house. Now my husband and I have moved to AZ to care for my elderly parents and are undertaking to be the owner/builders of a custom home. Some people don't like change but I guess I'm not one of them. Or perhaps it is just limited change I like. To my husband's current dismay I helped build a 4000 square foot house in Romania in 2001. We took it from slab to fully furnished in 11 days. I therefore have meager patience for the pace of building here in Arizona.

Repairs Ongoing

We finally got the library put back together. All painted, inside and out, although the outside will need another coat of paint. Then we had a hard rain out of the East and three more windows leaked. We had to pull (it is really a cutting process) the stucco off the outside of those but we have not opened up any interior walls. We think they are now sealed, we had rain yesterday and no leaks that we could find. The chicken wire and foam layer has been put back on and the stucco should come soon. Maybe I'll get some new photos up. The drainage all seems to work fine so we are happy about that. Everyone on the street has about gotten their landscape repairs finished and the weathermen are all saying that the monsoons should be over by Monday.
