Wednesday: Steve glued/screwed these strips onto the wall so that the drywall can be hung.
Thursday: He took a day off to be with his other grandchildren. :)
Friday: Steve brought my nieces and nephew with him to work all day. Nick was supposed to be off of work too for 4th of July, but he had to go in to finish a project. :( We had fun anyway and got lots of work done.
Steve did the ceiling in the bedroom - which was quite a process. Can't explain it in words... Then he drywalled the whole room/closet! WOW! It really made a difference!
Saturday - Sunday: We all took off! :)
Monday: Back to work. Steve and I met at Lowe's to pick out lighting for the living room, more drywall, doors, nails, electrical wiring, outlets, light switches, insulation, etc. This took so long! (and sooooo much $$! eek!)
Tues - Saturday: We worked on the living room. Here are some pics from the process. Oh and by the way - I've added one more job title for myself: electrician. I now know how to wire a can light! Woo hoo! (call me if you need a can light in your home, I'm sure to "screw" something up!)
THis is me nailing the wires to the frame...and a very sad Mason who wants mommy to stop working!
Here is my handy-man Hubby wiring up the box for our can lights!
THis is an upclose picture of one of our can lights after Nick and I wired them up!
Whew, they work! :o)
And this is where we are now! Hopefully, tonight I Steve will drywall the ceiling and finish preping the walls!
