One more room done, well floor anyway.  We hired a few extra guys to get it done and the workshop  went very quickly.
Worst part is trying to keep heat in the room while the concrete cures.
Having hired the two guys allowed Russell and John to continue with the drywall.  That will have to stop for a while so we can get the garage floor done and  the soffits up.  We are having a major wind storm today and we had to go and put bats back up to keep the blown in insulation from blowing away.
The pieces that were put on the ends were being pulled down by the wind.

Suzie found it hard to sleep last night with all the wind.  She said it sounded like the house was coming apart.
Brian is still working on the electrical and I help when he needs it.  I'm anxious to get at least one floor done but we need to finish closing the place in.  We can't really leave here for  a few days if we cannot close it in.

Another quote came in for doors for the house.  We need 17 doors that we would like in an all wood pine (not oak) that we can paint.   Four panes to look like the older part of the house.  Again $7,000.00  It's like the magic number that comes up as soon as these guys walk in the house.
So it is back to sourcing doors. More quality time on the computer and phone.


It is a pretty large room, lucky guy.

Trying to keep the heat in with tarps.

These guys power trowelled until 9pm
