electriclandMy aunt reports:
After breakfast we went back to the house. With Jen's help I stuffed insulation into the hall ceiling until we ran out, while Dan continued on the third floor and Brian and Karyn scraped the kitchen floor. Then we collapsed cardboard boxes and looked for bits of floorboard for a while. Then Uncle John came back with more insulation and scary yet environmentally friendly Stuff to remove the goop from the floor. Very citrusy and with Awful Warnings about not swallowing it, but none about using in a well-ventilated area. Quite effective but I think we'll need more. John McG took pictures -- this is going to be the best-documented renovation ever.
Today for all-day breakfast, Karyn, Robin, Jen, Brian, Dan, John McG, John, Mike and I had Spanish omelettes, beef sausage, fruit, biscotti, croissants and ciabatta with cheese. Imminent starvation was once more avoided.I arrived just in time for all-day breakfast. Apparently I'm getting a reputation.
This morning most all hands (that were there) were involved in clearing out Jen's bedroom--again in preparation for drywall.
Dan worked on the valence for the light on the third floor bathroom.
John worked on ceiling insulation.
Cheers, Helen
