		<description><![CDATA[Since finishing the electrical, we’ve been waiting a month to start the drywall. The problem is, it has rained every-other-day for a month, and we couldn’t coordinate a delivery date with our friends that didn’t leave the drywall sitting in the driveway for a spell. This logistical nightmare was complicated further by the fact that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the framing complete, a definite momentum had begun as we now started to round the corner towards the finish. that momentum was supercharged by an evening of manly wiring. As I mentioned earlier, all of the utilities in the basement were installed poorly, if not dangerously, and the same was true of the wiring. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the major utilities dealt with, we could finally start framing the room, starting with the ceiling. Past additions and renovations meant that the ceiling joists were random at best. In the area beneath the oldest part of the kitchen, the joists were 2&#215;10’s or 3&#215;10’s (that’s true inches) on rough 16inch centers. The rest [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Having moved all of the waste pipes, installed a laundry tub, and moved the water meter, the only remaining chore was to move the copper piping. Like the ABS, the copper pipes had been installed correctly, however they were pinned on the underside of the joists, which meant that they once again would require small [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The passageway between the two basement rooms is 30 inches wide, and four feet deep. Within that passageway, was our water meter – hanging out of the wall. My wife and I had caught shoulders on this nuisance more times then we can remember, and we were bound to move it. Up until the point [...]]]></description>

Our laundry room is one the main floor just off of the kitchen, along with our bathroom and other assorted amenities.

		<description><![CDATA[Post demo fun, we decided to first address the heating. The rear portion of the house (summer kitchen bastardization) has always been quite cool. Despite the fact that the walls are alleged to be insulated (new construction), we’ve always had the damnedest time keeping the place warm. We do have a gas fireplace in the [...]]]></description>

In a window of three hours my buddy Rudy and I managed to tear our every last scrap of drywall and framing and deposit all 1.5 tons of it in the driveway. What was the secret to our success? Firstly, we both grew up on farms so we know [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are embarking on a new frontier – restoring the basement. We really cant call it restoring the basement for if we were really restoring it, we would backfill it with 4 feet of dirt, resurrect the coal chute and add a few families of raccoons. Likewise, it’s not really finishing, as the past owners [...]]]></description>
