Latest Reconstruction Update

As of this afternoon the crew has completed the painting of the 3 bedrooms, electrical work, unclogged toilet (clogged toilet was not due to the fire rather compliments of Evan), and half of the floor tile in the guest bathroom.  Today the crew is finishing refinishing the hardwood floor in the hall, kitchen and living room.   All that's left is the guest bathroom tiling and painting of the hall, kitchen and living room.   The carpet will be installed sometime within the next week.   As for the roof (where the fire happened), it is just about finished.   They started moving the trusses up on Thursday, opened the roof yesterday to replace the burned ones and have sealed the roof until they complete the remaining work.   Hoping it doesn't rain too hard these next couple of days.   Good news is... there is no leakage from the rain we are getting today, bad news is...we are out of our home and living in the hotel until Tuesday.   As much as we are eager to get home and back to our normal life as we know it, we are pleased with our living arrangements since we moved into a soft loft 2 bedroom hotel room.   There is plenty of space for the 3 of us so we can still work and move around while E is sleeping.  We have to be quiet of course, but we are separated by a wall so it makes it more conducive to still do stuff without waking him in the process.  I will say, I was a bit worried about how the hotel room would pan out when I was discussing details with Home Link (a temporary housing service provided by our home insurance).   I placed much emphasis on how essential it is that we get a 2 separate bedroom room.  Thankfully my persistence paid off and we were provided with the 2 bedroom hotel room for the length of our stay.  We are very much happy and grateful to have this temporary home.   It makes a bit easier to be away from our real home; although, we sure do miss our home!  Speaking of missing home, we also miss our furbaby Dex.  He's still at my parents house until we move back.   We wonder if he will even want to come back...lol...he is living in the lap of luxury.   He gets far more attention and walks than we provide now that Evan's here.   Hope my next post is written from the comfort of our home.
