Rain Does Not Stop Us!

I had an interesting experience the other day: I walked out of the door of a room before I had ever walked in. If that's not a sure sign of interior framing, this definitely is: we've been doing interior framing! It's quite exciting, walls have been going up on the inside of the house, and we're beginning to be able to see where rooms will be, and what the spaces will look like. Now that we've lost Paul (he's all right, it's just that he's no longer working for us), I've gotta step it up a bit. For the last couple days I have been doing some work that, while not glamorous, is pretty important. I've been stuffing insulation into cracks (in metal studs/window frames on our very fancy and possibly fireproof east wall). This ensures that the area around the windows won't get cold. Or hot. So like I said, quite important.

In the next couple weeks, aside from doing whatever else Dad tells me to, I will be working on expanding the sump pit in the crawlspace! Hmm...digging in the dark and mud, in a space in which I cannot even stand up...another top-notch job for the lackey! Oh well, it's how I pay my debts.
