Passed Rough-In Inspection!

Praise the Lord!  He is Good!  And greatly to be Praised!

I finally called the building authority to have the rough in inspection -- fully expecting to fail because I have been told to expect him to find something wrong in a house this big...

I don't know if it was my utter honesty or the fact that I have been consulting with Todd Mobley or what, but he told me he was going to pass me right now...  After he left, I was brought to tears at God's answer to prayer!

Not that I have anything I'm trying to hide, but I have heard too many horror stories about building inspections, and I knew there had already been some problems...  But, I did go ahead and replace the headers over the 6' openings (2 windows and a door) -- and he saw that, and I think that may have helped him know I wasn't trying to hide anything...

So, we are now on to the next big phase -- insulation...  I have to go out and buy that...  I have already started ripping the 2x6's for firring strips after we get the insulation up...

So, we are ecstatic right now, and just rejoicing at how good God is!  Now, if only He will help me find the right job to pay for all this!
