It's been 6 months...... 6 LONG months

January 29, 2011

With the lack of me doing anything at the house, this blog has become a ghost town. I am out of the house gutting business as long as the plaster dust is flying. Speaking of ghosts though, Alok swears one open and closed a door last night when he was working alone. He decided to peace out of there pretty quickly. Alok has been doing a great job of tearing down the house, but not such a great job at blogging. Hopefully this extra long blog (and 6 month, well 6 month and 8 day review) will make up for it. A lot has happened!

Like last month, I also tried to incorporate pics from all the previous months so you could see the progress, rather than just having the beginning and now. Apparently, I didn't start charting the progress in this fashion until month 4, so we're skipping a few. Here we go:

(Some of these have our new roof... I apparently didn't get a complete before on some of them)
