Well all the drywall is in, It's not all taped and muded yet but it is up.
Had to rebuild 1 entire wall where the window goes, That was a joy :shock:
But all total for what has been done.......
Can Lights
Light covers
Bulbs
Wiring
Brakers
Drywall
Corner Beads (metal)
Lumber (for wall)
1 Window (other one isnt in yet, still on order)
Outlets/Switches/Dimmer/Covers
Plumbing
Bib (for washer/dryer)
Wire Nuts
Insulation (7 rolls of R-19)
Green Board
Tyvek house wrap
Screws/Nails

I have just under a grand in it so far, ALL labor has been free or a work trade off kind of thing.
I cant wait till it's done, It's starting to take a toll on me :)
I have taken pics as we went so far, If I have time I will have them developed tomorrow and will post after i get home from work (hope they turned out).
All the guys helping are taking a week off from here to get there own stuff done so looks like I might get a short brake for now.
Next on the list after sanding the drywall is paint, Flooring, cabinets, countertop,stove.
See......this is why i like working on cars, There waaaay easier to deal with :lol:
Catch ya all later.

I just finished doing a prefinished hardwood floor in the spare bedroom. UGH....man what backbreakin work!!!!!!

Too bad I am too cheap to pay someone else to do it....

I just fixed my central AC today.....blower bearing took a dump and fanshaft hit the fan housing.....ugly chirping noise through the whole house.

New blower......now tomorrow I will recharge the AC so the house will be an icebox. brrrrrr....now that's nice!!! 8)

How do you squeeze in time to work on the car?

LOL..that is the reason why the car is not running.

I am trying to squeeze all I can...but also $$$ for racing is not really in the budget right now. Plus I can't buy performance parts on a Home Depot card....don't I wish!!!
