Well, I guess tar paper is not all that exciting....but it's the next step! If I understand things correctly, we'll soon see the wire mesh stuff, then stucco, then paint, then trim and shutters and so on.
Today I had my construction meeting with Jesse Reeder, the guy who is building the townhouses. We had a good time and he and Debbie Reynolds from Centex answered all of my questions and we went through the checklist of everything that comes with the house from carpeting and countertops to toilets and lightswitches. The last portion of the meeting was a walk-through of the entire house to make sure I understand where everything goes and so on. My house is almost identical to their model home, where I have been spending so much time that I can pretty much give the tour myself if needed, lol.
I am going to be away for two weeks, and it is likely that I'll return to a completely drywalled house. Can't wait!
On a different note, I am on the lookout for endtables for our living room and the master bedroom. I will need to buy them used, discounted, on Craigslist, from your cousin, etc., so if you have any leads, let me know. I really like the ones in the model home (if Centex opened a used furniture business on the side, I'd be their best customer.) but any mission-style or similar design would do. Here's some photos of what they have in the model---see if you can find some for me:
