more demo

More demo was done this week....

a friend asked this week why we are taking the plaster out.  Here would be a good reason to get down to the studs...

we would've never known about this broken stud until it was too late...now dear hubby can fix it and all will be good.

  Also that old wiring has to go and removing all the plaster is the best way to accomplish that.

One of the positives of living in the house your husband grew up in is you know what has been done to the house during those years. A previous remodel included a bar into the back room (a.k.a. my office), another remodel took the bar out and closed the room back up.  I want a pocket door there but there's something about a load bearing wall, blah, blah, blah - at this point it all sounded like the teachers on Charlie Brown - what I did get from the conversation was that I won't get what I want...

the plaster pile (have I got you to say it five times fast yet?) is smaller in the house, some is now in the back of the truck on it's way to my sister-in-law's "free" dump and more is in the back yard...

One last thought.  We went to Lowe's and got some supplies...

where is he going to put it? 

SURE!  We'll put it in the garage....
