Drywall

The people who framed out our basement were supposed to return after the electrical and insulation were in to do the drywalling. However, with the delays with the Conservation Authority (who still haven't given us the final report!), we had to put everything on hold, and now the drywall people tell us they are booked up until the autumn of 2023. So we need to find someone else. Or do it ourselves, which is also possible, except it means having to rent a truck to pick up the drywall, and a bit more strain on the old back and knees than I'd hoped for. But doable if all else fails. My husband has called two more companies to come gives us quotes next week, though both have warned us they are also very busy. We'll see how that goes. 

When this is all over, I am seriously thinking of running for local political office, because this whole Conservation Authority fiasco is maddening, and we're likely not the only people having to deal with it. Seriously, how busy can this organization be? Why does it take 5 months to write a one-page letter? Why is a 3-month process taking nine?
