Week 14
A short work week--for some-- but still much done again. The siding install made good progress this week, and we are quite enjoying the look of our home as it emerges with color.
There have been some rain days lately, and so there has been drywall put up in the basement and it is looking more closed in but we can get a feel for the rooms.
Inside, there was color showing up as well. It was painting time and Kerry and I took it on ourselves to paint. We mostly enjoy painting and it was some sweat we could put into the house, and sweat we did! But we made good progress and by the end of the week everything on the main floor was painted twice except for the stairwell and the living room. We also had some help from a few others, Thanks Amber, Andrew and Karen.
And more electrical work. The electricians spent 2 days and did some more wiring . In the utility room in the basement, where a couple of days ago there was just a tangle of wires, now they are neatly wired into the panel. A panel was put up in the garage as well. Then there were some potlights put in, and plug-ins and switch covers in places. We now have a couple of live plugins and working lights. We purchased hardwood for the floors, and doors for the interior and are trying to decide on linoleum for a couple of rooms. And at the end of the week, it was time to get back to harvesting, and we finished combining the winter wheat, and I picked all the apples off the tree before the birds got to taste them all, but I ignored the garden because I didn't really have time to pick anything or take care of it anyway.
