doing the happy dance

Published Jul. 8, 2008

After a quick visit to the house yesterday, we discovered that WE PASSED the insulation inspection as well as framing.  So all of our rough-in is now complete.  Next step, dry wall.  We will begin in the kitchen so we can begin re-installing the kitchen cabinets (with just some minor changes on the cabinets). 

Unless I'm mistaken, I think our next inspection will be a final and cert. of occupancy. 

WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!

On a separate note, some of our tomatoe plants survived, as well as a couple of pepper plants.  The watermellon plants are VERY happy and running all over the place.  My basil pulled through and I think my oregano will as well.  Lost the squash and one cucumber plant, though.  We picked my daughters cabbage yesterday and plan to have that for supper today.  She's so excited.  We still don't have running water down there yet, so all of the plants are at the mercy of mother nature.

Congrats on passing inspection. My problem (many moons ago) was with the inspector for the septic tank. He would wait till we had a heavy rain, and then come by. On the third trip, with everything as dry as a bone, I threatened to put him in the small section of the septic tank! I don't know why, but we passed that day!

CTRambler, I have NEVER said the inspectors were bad. I had a moment of frustration, perhaps, but on the whole I've found the inspectors to be VERY open and helpful when we've called with questions.

i know, i am just funning with ya :)~

Congratulations! It seems you're in the short rows now. I love the dancing tiger, btw.

good news...happy for you

Congrats!!! Glad to hear that news :-)

Sorry i meant great news........

Grear news ! congratulations.Happy for you.

Shred cabbage and drain, if necessary. Take one half jar of Hellmans mayo and add 3 Tbls. parsley flakes, 3 Tbls. dried minced onion, 2 Tbls. sugar & 2 Tbls. white wine vinegar. Add all ingredients into mayo jar with just enough milk to make a creamy consistency. Shake, shake, shake the jar...kids love this part. Pour over cabbage, mix, chill. Enjoy!

yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy...SEE?? We inspectors are not ALL Bad :) congrats !!!!!
