here comes the exciting part....electrical wiring!!!!

Last week i traced all of the existing electrical circuits in the house...labeled plans with their locations...identified the circuits to be removed...planned out all of the new circuits...


i was excited to find tiny labels that are used on wiring and electrical devices to identify their circuit/breaker numbers (yes, i was excited). the labels adhere to the wires-and are pre-printed with numbers so when i start demolishing and tearing out receptacles, etc...i can keep track of what wires are on which circuits!


for areas not yet demolished, there are little stickers...also very helpful
can't wait to get started!  next step: pull out all of the existing circuits that are no longer needed.


meanwhile, scott is framing out the deck:



the inspector comes tomorrow to inspect the holes for the footings, and check out the framing.
the holes are all covered by boards and old doors---we dont want anyone falling in! 

we are expecting a big snow storm on wednesday (reportedly 12"), so who knows how far we will get with this.


meanwhile, my mother is tearing out the finishes in the basement...
yikes!

this is what it used to look like.
its looking pretty bad right now, but i have hope that it will get better!
