deadline with 0% chance of reaching it

Apr 12, 2023

Mr. Contractor said this week he would finish here. That’s today plus 2 more days and his chance of reaching his goal is a big ole’ ZERO.

slow moving progress

The only way to reach that deadline is if he shows up with a team of at least 10.

There’s so much left for him to do before he’s finished:

  1. Take down garage door, frame that wall, insulate it, cover it with wood on one side and metal on the other.
  2. Trim the downstairs windows and doors.
  3. Add trim to top, walls and floor.
  4. Spray seal the entire thing.
  5. Rehang the window blinds.

And that’s just downstairs. Upstairs, he still has to:

  1. Rehang a door.
  2. Trim out 2 windows and 6 doors (on both sides).
  3. Build, stain and complete stairs to Coco’s loft.
  4. Finish the bathroom trim.
  5. Patch drywall in a few places so I can touch-up paint them.

Perry is the only one still smiling through this…

My attitude more closely resembles Merida’s feelings on the state of our living conditions…

Merida isn't happy.
