Work continues - we are wiring now, but it will still be a small miracle if we get everything back together before we leave for Spain next week. So the new deadline is July 4th. We have visitors coming (yay!) and I think having an operable kitchen sink would be kind of nice by then.. ha ha ha...

So now for a couple of endorsements.

#1 is a Christmas gift which was purchased at a thrift store and we are really using it for info on sheetrock, subfloors, tiling, etc etc etc. Tons of pictures and information. If you ever see one at a thrift store, BUY IT. Its worth the $2. RD.com has a fair amount of the same information available online for free.


#2 is a fabulous tool called an impact driver. If you ever need to screw anything serious together such as a deck or a subfloor, if you ever had a problem stripping screw heads out, you need one of these! It will run a screw straight through a 2x4 if you let it. We were loaned one from a friend and purchased our very own just a few days later. It is an amazing piece of drilling technology.
