PEI ECO PLUS LIVING PROJECT: Finally an update

Some of the not so good news....

I am stiiiiiiilllll waiting for the two south doors (it is over 3 months now since we gave them our deposit), the garden (French) and the balcony door, therefore the shingling is in fact not really completed as I will have to complete around the doors after they are installed.

The driveway is not completed. I have been bugging the earth mover all summer to get it done. He came last week and did a day and a half's work and then it poured creating a giant mud bog and then he went to Florida for Holidays. I wish he had just told me he was not going to be able to get to it until late but spilt milk now.

The fascia, soffits and gutters are not on and he can't do it for another week (hopefully).

The horizontal insulation is not entirely down. Will have to cover it with something to prevent UV damage (hopefully soil but no guarantees this late in the year).

We got our first taste of winter with about 20cm of snow but it is supposed to warm and melt.

I strained my forearm shoveling the mud out from the front of the garage.

Now some of the good news.

Shingling is finally (almost, as mentioned above) done. The septic system got installed. Dry walling and insulation should be completed tomorrow. Mudding will start on Monday. The stairs will be installed by the end of the week, painting will start, the kitchen will go in, the vanities we don't have yet will go in, the final plumbing and electrical (one fixture bought so far) will get done, the doors we will order tomorrow will get hung, the trim (base boards and doors) will get installed, the greenhouse wall board will get installed, the attic hatches, doors to the upstairs storage and root cellar will get built and installed and then.....

we will move in??????? Sounds easy when you say it fast.

Here are some photos. More tomorrow after drywall is all hung.
