Day Thirty-Six. Is it Hot in Here? Or is Just Me?


So, I'm sitting in my living room/guestroom/computer room which is currently about 8,000 degrees, give or take 1,000 degrees or so. The 55" t.v. screen is like a giant heater and the 27" computer monitor is like a giant heater. 

Note: Maybe I should put on a swimsuit and see if the don't-sit-so-close to the t.v.-or-you'll-go blind rays will give me a nice, golden tan.

And I am parched, on account of the heat. And the fact that the water is currently shut off. But I'm not complaining, no. Not yet.

Later, perhaps.

Things are happening. The framing is mostly complete, the demo is mostly complete, the windows are mostly complete and our bank account is mostly deplete.

So, take a look:

The New Elevation
from the back of the house

The New Elevation
from the northwest-ish side of the house
Note: Doug could have spent all day trying to figure out the directionality of the house.
Turns out I'm kinda gifted with this kind of thing. Thanks, Morrie Dalton!

The Great Room
is really great! The structural support is done!


The Great Window Hoist
How many Dudes does it take to pull 12' Sliders up to their location?
Answer:8

Mission Accomplished!
both sliders are now safely installed with very little injury

The Hub in the 'Dining Room'
Nothing like a little dinner with Netflix and a View!
So now the Plumber and Electrician and Heating/Cooling Guy and CabinetMaker and Stone Fabricator are all doing their things to keep this project rolling, with unfortunately, just a few changes from the finicky homeowners.

And, by the way, I may or may not have catered a dinner for 200 people this weekend.

Note: And I may or not be pretty darn amazing.

Heck, yes!
