Shingles, Brick & Subfloor -- Oh, My!

The weather finally broke over the last week and the roof finally was finished! To our great surprise the brick layers showed up and put the details on the front of the house in anticipation of siding to come in the next few weeks....hopefully!!!


We also worked our tails off this weekend installing the additional subflooring in the attic spaces. The builder only provides us with a certain count in the "non-liveable" spaces, so we had to put in the sweat and back breaking work of installing it ourselves. Of course, Mike had to have a new tool to put this all together, so I bought his Christmas present early and now he has put the impact drill to the test --- in other words, I got to use it, too!!! :0) Now the attic above the garage is all complete and I can't wait to get my holiday decorations out of storage and into their new home.

The plumber is going to show up today and start doing the rough in and the heating guys are supposed to be here soon, too. Starting to pick up the pace as it should now that there is a roof! Our next duty is to order the kitchen cabinets in the right format (drawers vs. cabinet) and I will do that on Wednesday --- NO SCHOOL!!!!! YEA!!!!

Hope all is well with y'all and I will post again when I get a chance.


Love- Suzi
