Plumbing prep, slab pour

our new vehicle?

As part of the addition work, we're replacing our sewer line. Since we moved into the house, the sewer line has backed up/overflowed into our bathroom twice. That stuff is gross. This was in thanks to it's make-up (yup, that's basically glorified cardboard) and the proximity to the large pecan tree in our front yard.

Since then the beams for the new slab have been dug, the slab was framed out, rebar placed, plumbing roughed in, and Monday this past week concrete was poured. Zoe usually asks where the workers have gone, and we have to explain that they have to go home to see their own families and sleep in their own beds. She thinks they should bring their beds here and sleep in the new house. I'm not so sure they would agree, what with there being no walls or roof.
