Marc, my husband, and I were surprised how BIG the hole in the ground is. Ryan too. He said our house would be a "mansion" next to the other boxier two-storeys. Ours is a bungalow, a large bungalow. My dream home--minus the indoor swimming pool.
So back to our "Ho-Man"--and by the way, that's what he called himself--he told us that the Footings-Guys would be putting in the wood frame outline of the basement floor and filling it with concrete today. We're going to drive by after supper and check it out. I'll get a pic then of the footings and post it here...I know, how exciting. lol
And now for a message from my sponsor...
If you decide to build with Coventry Homes, let me know. Once you've finalized your deal and your house is built, I will give you a signed copy of my 2 bestselling thrillers--Divine Intervention and The River. Don't forget to tell Coventry I sent you; this is how we track the people I'm giving books to. This offer is good for all of 2010.
The second offer: If you contact our salesman and area manager Darren Rose and build with Coventry Homes and mention my name to him, Darren will give you an extra something special sometime around move in day. He's not saying what, but I know it'll be awesome!
Contact Darren Rose at laurel@coventry-homes.com or 780-757-5500

Very vicariously interesting. I've never had the opportunity to build a home or follow someone through the process, I just have heard that it can make or break you. The process seems similar to writing a book--what are those sticks? the premise/foundation upon which I will lay the groundwork for a book...I'm on a virtural 90 day around the world book tour. I'm virtually in London right now. House building is a welcome break. My book is HERE'S TO HAITI: Kiss America Kiss, I'm on tour with Premiere Writers, Emerging Voices of the 21st Century, Martha, Stan and Jan keep up the good work.
