'Rockin

Well we finally got around to hanging the sheet rock this past week (with a tremendous help from the contractor) so we're starting to see the space materialize.  It's a whole lot brighter down there too.  Sarah and I took the entire week off and in that span we...

- built the 45 degree wall in the kitchen
- finished installing the kitchen vent
- had some more electrical work done
- helped the contractor hang the drywall
- mudded and sanded the drywall
- finished the last couple pieces of the floor
- finished painting the stairwell
- painted the front porch decking
- had some painting done on the exterior
- took a mountain of things to the dump
- picked up a window to get installed downstairs
- demo'd half of the downstairs bathroom

Not bad for a week's work...here are some pictures:

Hanging drywall..........fun

Getting ready for another fun outing to the dump...that's the old bathtub surround standing up.

Sarah's mom came down to help sand over the weekend.

Another view of the living room....it's getting there.
