Make it a point to call her 2-3 times a day to see if the things you need done have been done. She may get the point, or may not.
I would get the heat going for the trades though. Temp power is part of my price, how can anyone work without it? Even if I devise, I power up then shut it down. When everyone uses the recepts they get marked up or damaged so no way. Power up after job is complete and temps are removed. It is a safety issue on a job site to be using anything but GFI protected power.
