Decisions, decisions

This is the first week in a long time that we haven't been to the beach.
But we're not slacking!



Some interesting facts:
Our framing contractor has used 65,000 nails and is not quite done.

Apart from the design, there are approximately 91 things that Jeff and I have to decide upon; everything from the flooring, to finishes, to lighting fixtures! We are about a third of the way there.
Next week we'll choose all the lights and the following week, the cabinets and interior doors and finishes.

My crab tally is 8 for the season.      :(        next year!

Building an energy-efficient home is much more affordable than it was even five years ago. I wish LED lights were ready for primetime. They are great!
We're hoping for a 4 or possibly 5 Star Built Green certification.

Despite some unforeseen glitches with the foundation, we're on schedule and (almost) on budget!

It's hard to imagine that the house will be done in five months!
