A pretty productive weekend

We spent Saturday working on my car (by we I mean, Ryan, my Uncle and I, hey I changed my oil!). My car now has brand spanking new brakes and rotors, a flushed out heater core (I swear heat was blowing out!) however it now sputters. So new sparkplugs are on order and we’re currently not driving my car 🙂

Anyhoo. We spent the rest of the weekend on the house. I finished the electrical for the tvroom lights (recessed and others). We ran speaker wire for the 4 back speakers in the tv room. We pulled up the oak flooring in the tvroom so it can be replaced with maple (it was running the wrong direction too). Ryan framed out the wall in front of what used to be a chimney. I made the board for the patch panel in the basement (cutting lots of holes).

Where we’re at now:
– Ceilings are completely prepped for drywall at this point.
– TVRoom: 3 of the 4 walls are ready for drywall
– Need to demo the 4th wall before drywall and run some last wiring (cable drops and outlets on 4th wall) [cable drops done on 12/5, demo done 12/12]
– Gym: 2 of the 4 walls are ready for drywall
– Need to install speaker wire and outlets on 1 of the walls [done]
– Need to install 2 cable drops [done 12/5]
– Need to demo the last wall before drywall [done 12/12]
– Bathroom: Has some work left – can be drywalled just about if we didn’t put up the rockboard entirely
– Need to caulk plumbing [done]
– Need to run electrical (except for ceiling fan which is wired) [done]
– Need to insulate walls (for sound) once other sides are drywalled

Pretty exciting! I got info on the drywall (priced it out and figured out lead time). I’ll order that next week as well as all the other supplies on the list of drywalling “stuff” 🙂
