Day 358 - Not Looking Good

 
At what point do I admit defeat and submit to the powers that be that are saying that the sub floor isn't supposed to be ready for Monday's appointment? Nathan is still sick so he has been unable to work, I am still sick, but while Maddie was asleep I got outside and nailed everything in that was lined up so something was done, but that only totalled about 7 rows and was achieved mostly with Amy's help.
 
Its hot, have I mentioned that its hot? I waited until it had cooled down a bit and asked Dad to pop in to help me get some things done. My gosh he is a machine three bangs and the nail is in, and straight!! SHOWOFF! Nathan came out to help while Dad was here and they got the ledger in and some more of the joists done before they were hit with a hail storm. Hail!! OMG bugger off, could this be any more frustrating. Dad tried to wait it out but the storm hung around so he went home after getting the whole of the master bedroom complete and part of the spare room.

Neither Nathan or I replied to texts as we were dying so the lovely slave Mr Morgan popped in to see if he could help so out I went again. Simon helped get the spare room done and the trusses ready for the deck, we marked out the edges of the deck and discovered the ledger was crooked all between crazy downpours of rain that we could here coming. Sunday night and the outside joists and the deck joists still need to be installed. I guess we will be calling council to cancel, now that is hard to say!
 
Thank you Slave Army
