good news!

the plumber will start work tomorrow (keep those fingers crossed)! the first thing he is going to do is run our new gas line to the new furnace so that we can get the heat back up and running. the past couple of days we have been doing what we can, but we haven't made significant progress...


we drywalled the inside of the laundry closet (that is the old furnace beyond...in the kitchen...that still needs to be removed)

(since we currently dont have any water in the house, we have been draining the water tank when we need it)


and we installed the beadboard wainscotting in the bathroom


we also installed all of the hardwired smoke detectors, recessed ceiling lights, and a little more drywall here and there!
