Work In Progress Wednesday

Just more work on the 4th bedroom this weekend... we got a ton of it done since Mark had Monday off. He decided to insulate the wall between the bedroom and family room too to help with sound and we'll have to get a new door, something solid to help with sound also. To insulate the wall he cut the bottom part of the wall which was already cut in an area due to mold removal and then cut tiny holes at the top to pull the insulation up from the top. This way we won't have to replace the whole wall but just the little holes at the top and the bottom should fit back on. Mark also ordered a whole bunch of networking cables and such so that we can have it all set up soon. I'm so excited that we're getting so close to Mark having an office, and a place for me to store my craft supplies and a guest bedroom for our family. Now to figure out paint colors, YAY, my favorite part!

The other news is that yesterday we had a furnace fire and thankfully I was home to catch it and thankfully it wasn't anything worse. I'm so thankful for God's protection. It was rather scary and I'm still having troubles not thinking of what could have been, but super thankful we're all ok. Several parts were replaced last night so that we can have some heat for the evening and now the process begins to research new furnaces. We've already done a bunch of research already since we thought we were going to replace it this fall but were encouraged to wait until it's warmer and replace the A/C at the same time. Guess what we'll be spending our energy tax credit on, sigh... Actually, we're not really sighing since we already had this planned, I guess.

Well, we're finally feeling like we're accomplishing something and look forward to opening up the downstairs, hopefully real soon!
