Not much action today

The electrician cancelled on me due to rain. He's working outside on the garage and the "weatherhead" (the post on top of the house to which the wires from the street run) so there was no way he could be up on the roof. I worked on some more research today.

The framer I was going to use backed out on me two weeks on the Monday of the week he was supposed to start. This has been a big set back. I am still trying to get someone else started. A good thing about this is that I found a general contractor who can do not only the framing, but a lot of the rest of the work. It's been slow going getting him on board. GC's are so busy around here, it's hard to even get one to work. We worked on an estimate early last week, and I was supposed to have his contract last Thursday night. On Friday, he promised it over the weekend. On Monday, he promised it Monday night. Today, he called at 8:30 and promised it within the hour. It came sometime after 11:00. But, at least it's here. We are pretty close to an agreement - there are just a few items left open to figure out. It was hard to wait this out - I really like this guy and think he'd be great to work with. Also, if I had started the interview process all over again, it might have set me back even further.
