Manuary ends, Snow day again, Plastering continues

Another snow day today.  Again, well timed for when I need to get work done.  

Shoveled the snow off the porch roof Sunday.  Will shovel off the back of the garage roof today.  Will also take a trip to Oxford to try our 3rd and 4th attempts to find the right cabinet color.

Plasterers finished the attic and have moved on to the bedrooms!  The huge transformation in such a short time is amazing.

Prior to shoveling the porch roof.

Drilling rig even deeper in the snow.  Still no action except another promise that we'll start "this week."

No new icicles since the insulation was finished.  This is an old one that's still hanging on.

Our old trash barrel used for kindling storage back in the woods.

An attempt to capture the chaos created by the boarders.

This is my attempt to capture the amount of dust in the air.  And none of these guys wear masks!

More chaos.

The "sturdy" staging they set up to board the family room ceiling.

More chaos.

Attic boarded.

The recess I built into the wall of the girls' bathroom using the space in the chimney chase.

Manuary is over.  I decided to shave in stages (De-Manuary-ification).

Stage 1: Mustache.  Time to move to Intercourse, PA.

P.S. forgot to include in the last entry that we tried to save money by buying faucets at the Maki Budget Barn in Lunenburg, only to find out that the two we bought were actually different from each other when we got home.
