I'm not real sure where the time went today. I was going like crazy all day and before I knew it, it was getting close to dark. From yesterdays picture to this, it really dos'nt look like much got done. But I feel that quite alot got accomplished today. Mom was out today giving me a hand, it helped out alot. We got it all squared up and into the final position, before nailing every joist to every 2x4 sleeper under the plastic. That kinda joins things to the footings. Even if I find that it is unsquare or something, it is not going to get rectified now. I still need to beef this baby up a bit, as this floor is going to hold the walls from squeezing inward when I back fill the basement. Just an update.Monday, September 28, 2009

You're doing a great job Mark. That's nice that your Mom is able to help you out. I bet she is enjoying seeing the progress too. :)
ReplyDeleteMan, you are rocking right along, buddy! Must be very satisfying to see it all start to go together!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeanie. The mom-ster likes to be doing things. It is alot of help having her out there.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jim. It is pretty satisfying. Once I get past the floor, I think the walls will make things look alot different again.
