I'm with you! We had weeks of snow that delayed our excavation. Finally it warmed up and we were able to get our footings in, but now we are stuck in a rainy cycle and can't get the foundation walls poured. My framing crew is ready and waiting, just hoping this delay won't mean he has to move on to his next job (which is bigger) that will delay us. Praying for sunshine here!

Oh yes! Building a new home and it was delayed about 8 weeks or so by Midwestern snow, then more snow and even more snow:/

Last week they were able to start again with the weather in the 40 and 50 degree range. They finished framing, started the roof shingles and got a lot of the plumbing in! Woo hoo! I was really getting antsy, but it actually turned out to be a time when I could sit back and scrutinize the plan and decisions and ended up making changes to the cabinet layout, made the master bath door into a pocket door, changed the guest vanity to an offset bowl and changed the pantry solid door to a glass door with a design and the word pantry across the top. Things were so rushed going into it that I didn't have a lot of time to make decisions. We decided to build and a few months later were digging the foundation. I needed the break to step back and reacess some things, glad I did. Also I was able to get lots of ideas and information from GWers.

It's good to know others are in the same situation. Thanks chellefnp and zorroslw1 for the responses. Having the extra time to reflect on decisions can be a great opportunity when a project starts faster than anticipated. I'll be sending you good-weather-vibes, too.

Things are so crazy here, hubby and I were actually using buckets this afternoon to bail out our man-made lake within our footings so it will dry out faster haha! Hopefully no one had a camera handy.
