Quick Update on the house & life

Ok, I am the worst!  I went from two posts a week to zilch.  I was traveling for work this week and Rob had a huge project roll out at work (yay!) so the week flew by!  Through all that we had several conversations with our PM as well as NVR on our mortgage.  Oh and Rob fit in a meeting with a financial advisor to set up finances up for our future.  Quite a week!  

So, I'll start with the house.  The Ryan Homes team has made some great improvements in communication... kind of.  Our PM's manager has stepped in and called me on Monday to clarify where we stand in the process.  We are next in line to get electric which they are saying will happen Thursday...then we will have a week of house inspections before starting drywall.  Again, the PM's manager let us know we will close in December.  He also signed up for a weekly update via phone call to help with the communication.  Hence our PM calling on Friday afternoon to update us on what has been done this week.  He let me know that the stoop and garage had been poured...well yep, that has been done for a month now.  Get your houses right when you call with an update!!  Turns out the neighbors house had the garage and stoop poured, ours just sat waiting for electric.  Again, they are trying with at least a phone call but come on you messed up the house numbers ?!  OK, enough complaining about our home process - we are just hoping electric happens this week. 

I said above that we met with a financial advisor this week.  Rob had met with him before so this was actually our second meeting.  I won't bore you with the details but the advisor prepared a proposed plan for how we should both handle our finances and my packet said for Leanne Di Leo!!!  Not a Di Leo yet but how awesome seeing it in print!!   Ha!  This was my favorite part of the meeting:

Well that's what we've had going on the past week...work and house!  So fun :)
