Ouch! That's Gonna Hurt


As I wrap up August, I realize 5 months have flown by and I'm within 3 months of completing this house! I took a couple days off from my "day job" and began installation of the HVAC ducting. If you ever plan to do this yourself, keep in mind that the tape will slice you like a hot knife in ice cream. OUCH, yes and everytime you will bleed like crazy. I think I have about 15 cuts on my hands and every time that darned tape got me I was thinking "man, that's going to hurt tomorrow" ha ha ha! I'm waiting on the "HVAC professional" to decipher what size supply and return mains are necessary (some crap that he's got to do with his numbers and measurements ha ha). This weekend will be full of finalizing the drain plumbing (yea, my dad has had a time with that, so I am trying to help him - the supply plumbing was my job and thats been done for weeks) and then some final framing to prepare for DRYWALL! The only hurdle in my way of drywall is the county inspectors - yea, GOVERNMENT! Of course, when I finish working on my new house, I come back to my townhouse and work for a few hours there, trying to get it ready to be sold. Can't wait for this weekend - going to hit a Blues hangout with some friends - YES, some social time WOO HOO! Gotta jet - PEACE OUT!
