Construction Day 2 -- Some Progress to be had




After the water heater got moved on Saturday, Jim had to tackle knocking down the rest of the laundry room wall, moving electrical wires, and putting the wall back up. Before he could get to any of that, however, he had to fix the doorbell, that somehow got disconnected the day before. Jessica figured that one out early on Sunday morning as we were coming back from the grocery store with eggs for pancakes. She has to ring the doorbell on her way into the house now, and it just didn't work much to all of our surprise. One hour later, Jim had fixed the problem. Because he was working on that, I made breakfast. The good thing is that the doorbell works (although with Mousse and his barking at the doorbell, no doorbell might be a nice change). The bad thing was that I cooked breakfast. Not my area. I screwed up pancakes. I can't even tell you how I did that. Jessica was the only person who ate them. Anyways, people wonder why construction goes overtime. It's because of little unexpected things like the doorbell. Anyways, here are some pictures from the Sunday progress. The laundry room wall has been knocked down, the frame is about 2 feet back (yeah! that gives me room for cabinets), and the electrical is a work in progress. I really love navigating through the hanging wires to do laundry.
