Project

With some good luck we were able to get the opportunity to have my sister in law's Dad who is a builder come finish our basement. Being the week before Christmas he was in between a project so we got a good deal. He normally only builds luxury homes so we were getting quality work (which is hard to find these days). Which is the only reason I agreed because

it was just weeks before Christmas.
My basement was full to the ceiling with stuff.
oh and it was weeks before Christmas (ha ha).

We worked really hard and got the basement cleaned out. For the first time in 8 years we could see the basement.

As the stuff came upstairs my anxiety was going through the roof!  My house, and garage were becoming a mess!

But with several trips to donate stuff and return stuff we were storing for people it got more manageable.

A big crane delivered the dry wall but the men still had to load it down stairs.

With some instruction even I was able to help with the insulation (thanks to Craig and Lisa who worked hard helping too).

The project was dusty and messy and my house was a diaster for most of the holidays but the day before Christmas Eve it was done.  I was so excited to have made it through it all and see the progress.

We still have a lot to do... paint, carpet, wood work but we are getting closer to finally having it done!
