Really coming together.
All that's needed are the outside lights, wrought iron railing, and front yard sod.
So I got a call from mom, who just returned from shopping at Belk’s and was standing in front of her new home- mom bought herself a new dress for this Sunday’s performance of ‘Phantom of the Opera’, and was so excited to tell me that the gutters had gone up on the house and that the landscaping in the front was done. She sounded like an excited girl who just opened up a present.
As she was hanging up with me, she spotted her old neighbors. They had decided to see where my mom was building and check out the house. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to look inside, because the hardwood floors were done today. In fact, no one can walk inside until Sunday. Regardless, my was so excited to see her old neighbors and friends. She so badly wants them to build next door. Mom is always talking about how much she misses them knocking on the back door and stopping for a cup of coffee.
Any way, it looks like mom will be home for Christmas. I’m so grateful to our builder. He is an exceptional man, who worked exceptionally hard for me to ensure that my mom would be in her home for Christmas, and in the process, did a superlative job. We are very fortunate and blessed to have found such a wonderful person.
