Where We Are Now

It's official. I am a horrible blogger. I really need to update more often.

Shortly before Christmas we finished framing our house. We have a few odds and ends to finish up before we can go for the framing inspection. Then it will be officially locked up and we can move on to rough-ins.
I am thinking that around the beginning of February we will be at drywall. I am so flippin' excited to be done drywalling (yes, i know we haven't even started yet) then we can start working on the interior finishes and we will start to see some crazy progress.

Not a whole lot has gotten done since Christmas. We took a couple of weeks and stayed with my parents to get out of the camper and to take a break from all things house. It was a nice break but we haven't made a lot of progress since we got back. We have been trying to catch up with our regular work, getting things picked out, ordered and finalized for the next stages in building, and just generally catching up with the day to day things that we just didn't have time to do while we were rushing to get our house closed up.

This week we were all ready to finish up our to do and set up the inspection. Mother Nature had other ideas though. We are having a cold streak this week. We have been having lows of -35 all week (actual temp. not counting the wind chill). We haven't felt like braving the cold (we aren't that crazy) so we are taking this week off. Temperatures are expected to increase on Sunday so we'll be back at it soon.
