Inspection update

After some confusion and me staying home to wait on him so that he could no-show - the Inspector finally showed up! Breakdown goes like this:

Electrical Final = PASSED!
Plumbing Final = Failed.
Mechanical Final = Failed.
Can't call for the Final Building Inspection until those three finals are passed.

All we need to pass the plumbing is a silly (and ugly) overflow switch off valve on my otherwise beautiful faucet on the clawfoot tub. Mr. Price already trippity-tropped on down to Lowe's and picked up this $30 part and installed it. Ready to
call for inspection again!

Mechanical - need a bit more:
-extra decking in the attic (isn't that building/framing?),
-the vent flew to be moved to a different angle (there's a whole calculation and it's a massive pain to deal with... cutting new holes in the roof, patching the shingles, etc)
-find a 3rd party inspector to test all vents and such (this is going to take some time...)

Did I mention that we can't 'move in' until we pass final?

When our king sized new bed arrived a couple weeks ago, I dare any inspector or other city representative to tell me I can't sleep in it. but nonetheless - we can't move other furniture up there or look like we're living in up there. which is driving me nuts. I AM READY FOR THE MASSIVE FURNITURE MOVE AROUND in this house. let's GO already!

To help the cause - Mr. Price did make a plea to the last inspector that he has 'a pregnant wife who is chomping at the bit to move up there' so we got unofficial approval to live up there (i.e. we don't have to take our toothbrushes and towels, etc back downstairs each time an inspector shows up) but we can't "move" up there yet.
