While I was on business travel to Dallas/Ft Worth, the electrician spent a couple of days finalizing the electrical and installing the plug outlets. I have no pictures or detail.
To make the outlets less conspicuous, they were installed sideways.
Our alarm guy came and fixed the line. So when I finally arrived home around midnight, we were able to turn on the alarm.
No Work – Day 10 Wednesday
No work due to the Fourth of July holiday.
I woke up to a tripped alarm because Lauren didn’t know the alarm was turned on the previous evening.

No Work - Day 11 Thursday
No work today, but Don, Lisa and Alyssa came over after skating practice to see the progress. After reviewing the kitchen, Max wanted to show Don where the electrical and gas connections were located in the garage. (Thrills). Alyssa went with them and with assured discipline, she insisted on taking off her shoes before going into the family room. As she stepped through the zippered opening, she tripped on the plastic, pulling down the divider.
Alyssa is such a graceful, elegant skater, but can have two left feet on dry land. Max spent a few minutes putting it back up with duct tape and a staple gun.

Construction - Day 12 Friday
In the morning Max and I drove to Escondido to watch Alyssa skate. She did well, placing First in the qualifying round. We had to rush home because Doug said he would meet us at the house at 1pm. When we arrived a couple of the workers were laying out on the front porch.
They removed the lighting fixtures we identified as overkill. Doug and Max went over final agreements on what was going to be done starting on Monday. We paid a portion of the final bill and got a lien waiver from Doug. This waiver indicates that Doug will pay the subcontractors (electrician and plumber) and that they cannot come after us for payment or put a lien on our house to force a payment.
They also replaced the zippered plastic divider using reinforced duct tape.
No work - Day 13 (Saturday) and 14 (Sunday)
No work over the weekend.
