More progress

Saturday our neighbor finished up sheetrocking the cupola, it’s great having that done in time to put up a xmas tree this year!  Our contractor got the rest of the floor cut out in a feathered pattern for re-installation.

Cupola sheetrocked

Sunday during naptime I got the lights in the livingroom wired down to the panel box and switches and pigtails all installed so there’s work light now after 4pm 🙂  I also put a temporary light in the diningroom which has had no light for a while 🙂  I cleaned up some wiring in the basement too although that’s an ongoing project.  Eventually I’ll do a full panel box clean-up, make everything nice and tidy.  I think we’ve finished wiring pretty much everything that is downstairs, except the microwave outlet.  So anytime I have a free day with daylight to do it I can do that project.

Flooring progress at lunch time.

Today our contractor is back and he’s putting in the floor again.  We have the saved stuff he pulled up (what was saveable) as well as what we saved when we pulled up the upstairs diningroom.  It’s going great so far for such a tricky fill in job.  He has to leave early today but he’s coming again tomorrow and I think based on the progress he’ll be able to finish tomorrow no problem.  I think our neighbor is coming over Friday to start taping maybe, that would be great.

Our plan is to get our tree on next Monday and it will only stay up for a week this year so we can get back to finishing this room.  Luckily we’ll be home a lot that week to enjoy it at least.
