Two weeks before I was to start a 3-month leave to help my dad with the work, another delay hit us. This time it was slightly different, nothing technical or financial but merely life throwing us a new and exciting adventure. After a 5-year wait and a 2-week notice, our family welcomed a little one through adoption.
My dad continued for a couple of weeks the work that was underway and then we decided to put everything on hold until the end of Spring 2013. The ground floor of the house is practically finished with ‘only’ the plastering of the walls and tiling of the floors left. When we resume the work, we will move to the 1st floor and continue with the installation of the bricks and cork insulation on the outside walls.
If everything goes as planned, we should travel to France as a family for the summer months and hopefully give the last push to complete the work.
