Rainy Week Ahead

From all the actions last week, with the rains forecasted.. it may be a wet week so far.  

As far as chasing people around.  Just talked with the broker since I was following up on the FHOG submission.  
She said that has to wait until the slab has been laid before she passes the application.  I hope no issues occurs because of that.  The impact though is that we need to do the advance payment for the first progress payment as this was supposed to come from the 24k FHOG.  I guess we should start to expect that so that when the FHOG application is approved, then we have a blessing worth 24k.  

Talked also with the builder to close on the questions about the availability of services upto the Right of Way (ROW).  No news yet hopefully a good answer will come out of their review.
