Week 2 - Day 8 cont'd


It is now the end of the day, Thursday.  More of the same, but hallelujah, a bin came today.    Helped them lug stuff out there today.













Stepped on a nail this morning,  not too bad, but put the work boots on and had an urge to take things apart. Started taking the panelling off in the basement 'rec' room. Admittedly, I am a bit of a dawdler, but that is the way I like it and every little bit helps.  Fun stuff.
Lumber coming tomorrow apparently, so something other than demo may happen, but the chimney has to come out first.  Next week maybe.





This is the peak of the house. The existing ridge beam will be replaced with a  engineered type of beam. First the demo, then the structural. However, since we may be into bad weather soon, a little bit of reno, a little bit of structural.

Will is making fun of my 16 oz hammer.  If I work hard and build some muscle, I may graduate to the bigger one.  You know what they say about the size of your hammer?
