The builder is paying for our move, they were 3 weeks behind on finishing the house (9 days after their guranteed delivery date)

Tomorrow is the big day!

I got my close date moved up 3 weeks...The builder likes me. My mother says because I dress like Daisy duke out there.

Screw- all thats left is sanding and painting the drywall, laying the carpet and tile and pouring the driveway. 19 days!If they drywalled a house in one day- they can mud it today, sand it tomorrow and paint it monday. Lay cabinets Tuesday, Trim it Wednesday, Put in the floors Thursday and lights Friday......
PLUS one thing never to be hijacked by my ghetto neighbors(the builder had me go into the house when it was framed and write what I wanted on the studs) is my supercool black granite fireplace face-everyone else has cream marble. I already redid my lights cause the stupid neighbors copied them.

Plus my kids are in a new school, and I need to move in so I can get them on the bus.
PLUS the place I live now needs to be rented for school to start. School starts 8-10 here.

I wandered through there with only a flashlight a little while ago- stuck a screw in my foot too. It hurt like hades.

hope your foot is alright.

And if I lived around there, yes I would help you move... I'd grab a lawn chair, a beer and tell you what to move and where to put it.

April, Nice new Home. Around my area it would take at least two months to complete the above work.

Good Luck and Enjoy.

Buy the poor guy some ear plugs /hearing protection, something and leave him alone and it'll get done faster if he knows what exactly you want done.
People make a mistake with me I tell them I'll take them out scuba diving with me and they ain't coming back !

Ack- he knows exactly what I want......
Problem is annoying neighbors keep stealing my ideas. But when they go to bed at night their house is still painted ORANGE.

Too bad their house was framed out before they saw my window wall

I was thinking more a kick in the ........

I changed all my lights- those crooked unimaginative crooks took all my light ideas too.Went into lowes and musta said- gimme what the neighbors have.

I know cause a LOT of the stuff in my house is customed- Like the door to the upstairs bonus at the bottom, and BAM there they go with the same..

Only thing they couldn't steal is my carpet, paint and tile and my supercool window wall. This is it before it was drywalled.

Down there until a house closes anyone can wander in it and see what it looks like. The realtors also use our houses to sell more.

You know ! who cares if you have a better idea , whats important is that even if it was your idea first then they liked it and copied it You will know that and its your dirt that will lay inside the carpet not theirs , so in so far s to say, you can live with yours but not someone else's ! BTW I also am a carpet tech and you can hide one pound of dirt in a square foot of a dense cut pile carpet ! You also have pets ! i WOULD make sure THAT IT IS A Dupont Stainmaster carpet. e-mail me if you want details April. Ed

Was living outside of it a consideration?
Honestly... inquiring minds want to know.

BTW, I am considering the lot next to yours. Wanna... wanna be... my neighbor?
A word of warning. My coffee HAS to be ready at six o'clock sharp.

Maybe when I retire in a few years there will be one of your neighbors homes for sale. I'll be needing my coffee about the same time as George.

any reason to hate your neighbors other than orange walls and ceilings. Are they the ones stealing your light fixture ideas as well?

Ya- the bastards.
But on the bright side, I picked better ones than before.
You know I don't like being copycatted.
