Home Renovation Day 4

Following the asbestos removal on Tuesday, the inspector came and ticked the boxes mid-morning yesterday, so it was a bit of a rest day. The builders came in for a couple of hours after lunch.

Today was full on with half a dozen men in there demolishing the wall frames. They installed some beams, which turned out to be hard wood instead of steel.

The walls in the lounge room are completely gone, giving an idea of how open the new room will be.

The wall for the bedroom and the half wall for the kitchen are now in place.

It is all looking good. It is pleasing to see the rapid progress they are making.

We spent an hour today looking at kitchen appliances and dining room chairs. Such fun!

Quote for the Day

Unison singing, difficult as it is, is less of a musical than a spiritual matter. Only where everybody in the group is disposed to an attitude of worship and discipline can unison singing, even though it may lack much musically, give us the joy which is peculiar to it alone. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
