[mit-habitat-exec] order placed

Last year, the lumber and nails cost $941.94. But we didn't buy hammers or tarp,
so that may add to the price a little. Still, a $350 difference is a lot.
Asking for a charity discount is a good idea though.

When do you need the money by? Can we pay by check? If I can get an invoice of
the cost I can get a check cut directly to the Home Depot from the Habitat
account.

We have enough money to cover the cost - $500 from Spring Weekend plus the $7000
sitting in the bank. 

Let me know what you want to do and I'll do what I can to help.

Oh, and were the wood orders made based on last year's plans? Did you hear from
Lawrence yet?
