Way Too Exciting

Wondering why a picture of a pole is way too exciting? Well, this pole is the symbol of the start of our house project. I said that to my father-in-law today and he asked what the past year and a half were. I know, I know. We have been working through plans, approvals, permits, etc for a while now, but this pole just feels like things are finally coming together. I rounded the corner to the garage on my way home from work yesterday to find it. I was so excited I ran over to it and had to touch it to be sure that it was really the temporary power pole. Who would have ever thought a pole could make me this happy.

I also have to apologize for not posting in awhile. I didn't have any forward house progress to report and was a bit grumpy about it. I thought I'd wait until I had an exciting bit of news to share. Well, there it was. More to follow...
