slow progress..

..still no word back from the insurance adjuster who came last Saturday and said we should hear back from him in a week, after he talked to the siding expert (another job for the never-knew-it-existed list: siding expert for insurance company). Got a nasty letter from the city inspections department about the tree on Friday; finally got in touch with neighbor who wants it and he did come haul off the logs he'd previously cut this evening--2 big vanfuls. (still leaves a big section to go, probably the part the inspections people really don't like....hoping he will come back with a chain saw and get that too..) Kinda surprised the letter from the city didn't say anything about the siding (or rather, lack thereof), but a good thing as at this rate it may be like that for a while..
