Sheet rock started





We got one bid for hanging and taping and then called "Alfredo" a guy who is a friend of a friend and who also did our friend Webster's house. By mid afternoon the next day over half the rock was hung. The only reason it wasn't all done is because I wasn't finished with my electrical work. So I went back last night and worked a few hours to get it finished so they could continue hanging and taping. Talk about fast!! Maybe by next week we will be able to paint and then doors and floors, it's starting to go fast, but still we'll be lucky to be done by the end of May.

Monday - Day 4

Finished gutting Living room, still trying to decide on how to finish the fireplace. We have some issues with the setting of the actual unit, and we're hoping to get it set forward. Did some preliminary work on the electrical lines to the Kitchen and taking out the line to the old laundry in the front entry. I started taking out the soffits in the kitchen and was shocked to see how much work I might have to do moving the electrical, then I realized that the cabinets don't go all the way to the ceiling and that most of the electrical can stay were it is. We'll have to deal with the cellulose insulation when we get to the sheetrocking of where the soffits were. I'll have some pictures tomorrow when I go back today with the kids, unless we get snowed out.
