It's my birthday!!

Tomorrow I will get to see the builder's estimates from all the subcontractors. My dad won't tell it to me over the phone, because he wants me to come and help him tomorrow clean up some fallen branches. He told me tonight on the phone that it is good news. I have my fingers crossed.

Tonight Steve and I are going to a chick flick. My choice - Nights at Rodanthe. I hope it is good. Of course, who cares - it has Richard Gere. The kids have pizza and movies, and they are on their own for a couple hours.

What has happened in the last 10 days? Josie got her baby blue cast Tues. the 16th and had another xray this past Tues. Everything looks okay, so we will be back in 3 wks to have it taken off and another xray. (Josie is going to light up from all the xrays.) If it hasn't healed, then they will put another cast on for a couple more weeks. She says it feels like it's not broken anymore. The original number on the pain scale was a 7.5.

Here we are at the lot. I'm measuring the lot and where the trees are, so I can estimate where the house will be for the "site plan". I faxed the site plan and application for an address permit to Public Works. I haven't heard from them, so I'll assume that everything was okay with the application. They send the info down to Building Inspections for when I file for the building permit. Hopefully that will be next week. Plus we should be applying for the construction loan soon. I hope CEFCU doesn't go belly up. Not likely.

I'm trying not to get to anxious about everything. I keep telling myself that it is out of my control and things will happen when they do. It sure would be nice to have the basement poured and the walls up before winter.
