Hubby arrived home over a month ago and since then we were busy starting the construction of our house.
We got the house plan from an engineer. He already finished the plan last year. At that time, we asked him to create a house plan as we prepared the requirements for a housing loan in Pag-Ibig. We were supposed to get a loan at that time but didn't push through with it since we don't have yet the land title.
I told the engineer that the house has two storeys with one room on the first floor and three upstairs. When we got the house plan, it has a room on the 1/F and four on the 2/F. Too many rooms! But, the plan is done and paid for, so we might as well use it. We'll just tweak some features to fit our taste and style.
We hired the services of Hubby's uncle as contractor. With the budget we had, we would only be able to start with the construction of the first floor. (Our lot title is not yet done, don't know what's taking so long.)
After three weeks of construction, our house is starting to look like a house. We decided to leave the foundation of the first floor as is, with provisions for electricity and plumbing. We'll not be able to live in it now. By next year, hopefully, with God's graces, we would be able to bring in paint and tiles, etc. to make it a comfortable living space.
