Soffet & Fireplace


This weekend we framed in the fireplace and soffet. My hands are so sore, I can barely type. I got a sliver that went in one side of my finger, out the other side, and into the next finger. Looking forward to some down time at work tomorrow.

Piano Recital


The boys had their piano recital today out in Denton, where their piano teacher lives. CP played the theme from Lord of the Rings, and GP played "Don't Stop Believin'" from Journey. In all, I think there were 32 kids on the program. It's funny how much I used to loathe reciatals, but now they don't bother me so much.
This weekend we concentrated on the new bathroom in the basement. JP secured a building permit, so we are now officially finishing our basement. My new favorite toy (and the boys', too) is the Ramset powder nailer I'm borrowing from my neighbor. It shoots nails into concrete using .22 caliber blanks. Cool! We only have two more weekends of framing to do, and then it's on to the electrical & plumbing.
