54 BD - lots on the go

Multiple conversations on under way on the project. 

We have a new kitchen and bath designer - Eleanor. She provided some preliminary numbers on the kitchen and mill work design which were OK, not the Direct Buy savings that we were hoping for but better for sure. 

A big decision still to be made on that project (among many) are the appliances - we are debating between a wall over and range top vs. a traditional stove. Ah, first world concerns! There is a pretty big cost difference because the wall equipment would be Jenn-Air which DB does not carry unfortunately. 

Looks like we are going to get a survey done to ensure that we place the wall in exactly the right place - there are conflicting surveys so Joey has recommend we get one done. Yay, another $1,500!

No finalization on any trades though conversations now under way with 'foreman', HVAC, electrician, plumber and framers. We need the 'foreman' piece sorted soon and are currently leaning towards Jeremy, with me doing an even larger amount of organization between the trades. His numbers were pretty solid. Nothing from Doug Rigaux still unfortunately, if we don't hear over the weekend then he will be out of the running. 

Seems like there should be more to say but that is all that is coming to mind.
