Not a good day

Today I was really drained and scattered. I got very little done and felt a bit panicked about it. There is still so much to do, everything takes so long and it such a complex process.

A few good notes - I scheduled my first inspection for Friday 2/24. It will be an inspection of the plumbing and electrical rough work. I will have to have another inspection in order to close up the walls (after insulation and repairing framing and floor damage), then the work for the final inspection can begin.

I spoke to the general contractor I met with on Friday, and he expects that we can finish everything we need to for the place to be habitable in 4 weeks. That's really good news because I thought it was more like 8 weeks. Also, his price for the remaining work seems reasonable. I am waiting to get his final contract. The work still to be done by him includes: repairing subfloor and framing, drywall, building tub deck, adding back a missing porch post, installing windows and repairing a gap where the old heater registers were.
