The countertops were cast in stone

But the schedule wasn't.  The countertops were scheduled to be installed on Monday, with everything tightly backed up to that event.  There was a delay and they won't be installed until today (Friday)...  Everything else had to be rescheduled...  The eight week project has quickly become a nine week project.  For the second time, two more weeks to go.  We still believe that we picked the right contractor, and that this isn't Ground Hog day.
