Construction Zone

The attic remodeling has begun! Our contractor was here today and began plumbing in bathroom. It has already been an adventure: holes in other walls *not* in the attic and a small electrical fire in the guest bathroom (oh! the joys of cloth, non-grounded wiring!)

After months of planning-- years, if one includes the original thought to remodel the attic when the family first took ownership of the house-- construction has moved from an idea to action. Now, according to our guy, we are being told that for the first couple of days we shouldn't expect fireworks. BUT by Friday, we should have framing done and wiring and plumbing roughed in: that's when the pyrotechnics will erupt.
