I was afraid it wouldn't fit. But it does! The plumber was here today and worked on rough plumbing. Ian's dad leveled the floor and we mounted a door and did more work on electrical.
Regular status updates of on the progress of our remodel. Our goal is to turn a 1950s era home into an energy efficient, attractive home suitable for the next generation.

More lights and framing
Today Ian's dad fixed framing so that our shower valves can go in the right place. Ian and I worked on installing lights and outlets in the downstairs storage area.

Plywood
Today we worked on putting plywood over the old subfloor. The floor feels so stable now. Lots of screws. No more squeaks!

Let there be lights
Ian and I spent the last two days continuing to work on kitchen electrical. All the lights are in and rough wired.
Walt spent the last two days keeping water and dry land separated.... He backfilled over the water service with sand, then magnetic marking tape (spray painted blue, because we couldn't find the water marking tape in stock), then to original grade and tamped to compact. The picture doesn't look amazing but after months of an open trench cutting through my yard, I'm so thankful.
We all said it was good. And there was evening and there was morning...
