Update from the Land of "Nothing's Simple"

Our appliances were due to be delivered on Saturday, so we worked to try and finish the kitchen drywall patching up and get at least primer on. So much for that! We noticed some iffy spots in the drywall behind where the fridge would go, so Aaron cut out a section:

But then he noticed the spot went behind the small base cabinet next to it, so off that goes:


That was late Friday night, and we realized we didn't have enough drywall at the house to patch the new larger hole, so we had to wait until Saturday morning to hit up Lowes and get the drywall. Dash got us up god-awful early Saturday morning so we were over at the house by 5:45am, doing all the work and prep we could until Lowes opened. After several coats, the patch was looking more like wall, but still wasn't ready for painting:


By the end of Sunday, "most" of the kitchen was primed, and a small section of dining room. Otherwise, most of the our dining room and hallway looked like a backdrop for 101 Dalmations:


Monday Aaron met w/the water guy after work and we found out that we have iron and sulfur in our water (we could have told you that!) and he suggested a $900 water filter system - we're shopping around for a better deal. Also he heard the pressure pump turning on and off as he tested the water and let us know that it was dying and would burn out our well pump if it wasn't replaced. He suggested what size to buy and where to mount it (20 gal., mounted on a shelf above our water heater), and thankfully the pricing on those items seems relatively in expensive ($130ish). Unfortunately it does add yet another project to our never ending list of things that "must" be done before we can move in.

On the positive side, Matt is coming back up this weekend and is letting us borrow his air nailer which will make the process of putting up window casing alot faster. This is one project on the "must" list because insulation is sticking out from the gap between window and wall and we can't have the animals in the house while it's exposed. My high hopes are that the kitchen/dining/hall will be completely primed and possibly painted, the window casing will be up, and the last door will be fully functional by the end of the weekend. If we get totally lucky, we'll also have either the pressure pump or the water filter purchased and installed, or a part of the kitchen/dining flooring put down.
