Started as our attempt to keep friends and family updated on our remodelling project. Revisited in Oct 2013 to be a spot for thoughts about transitions in life.

Helping hands cont'd





The contractor's helpers tossed one of the concrete forms to the side. It hit the garage and put a hole in the wall. We needed to replace some boards anyway. Primed the inside to help seal the wood on both sides, and help lighten the interior of the garge.
So here we are working together. Helping each other. And smiling. Still.


A 4 foot wide and 12 foot long sheet of 5/8" drywall weighs about 90 pounds. That's plenty for two people to hold over their heads while standing on ladders. Now put a drill/driver in a hand and try to accurately drive screws into the drywall sheet.
Drywall lifts are wonderful. Only cost $25 to rent for the weekend. And not just for ceilings. It helped with the upper wall sheets too.
