Well, we had hope. Since it is 9 pm now, all hope for today is lost. No windows. Mr. Windowman never showed up. But, Joern did say later that it is expected that the windows will be in by Wednesday, so obviuolsy, Mr. Windowman still expects to come on Monday. Either that, or we'll be getting a phone call sometime in the near future.
But, beyond the disappointing news, we got some exciting news as well! We met with Mr. Plumber today to hammer out a few financials, well, quite a few, like the gigantic price of the fixtures. We did a walk-through of the house with Mr. Plumber as well. He said that before the plumbers begin installation, we will do an official walk-through, during which the plumbers will mark off the exact location of all the fixtures and faucets on the walls. So today was just a quick walk- through. But after our negotiation session, Mr. Plumber said that we can expect the plumbing work to start on- APRIL 4th! We can expect the plumbers in 10 sleeps! I don't think I can take the excitement! Wahoo! This means, it is really crunch time, plumbingwise. We need to make sure all of our decisions on the bathroom fixtures are final, because installation time is almost here!
No house plans this weekend, as we're headed up to Rhineland-Pfaltz to visit my friend, Mandy and her husband, Doug. I hate to wish the weekend away, but I am so looking forward to Monday, and so hoping that Monday is "Window Day!"
Welcome! Our Fall Home Tour

Bummer about the windows! Our windows were a couple of weeks late...but I remember when the plumbers came and started their work, and I remember when they put in our radiant floor heating! Ah the excitement of it all!!
Thanks for your support, Lelia! I am really looking forward to the upcoming weeks though. Now that we have the "Rohbau" completed, it is so much easier to envision the house. I can't wait to get moving!
