Week 2 - Our First Permit

We applied for our first permit this week, which is an interesting process. Our biggest problem was the fact we don’t live at the house. But we can’t live there until we fix it up and fixing it up requires a permit. Hmmm… but we did finally talk them into giving us one once they found our homestead paper work. Whew!

We also continued to make some progress on reconstructing our bathroom. We got the plumbing in, the sub-floor and insulation installed, and began to drywall the room. We also got the water turned on. This means that once we get that toilet installed we won’t have to go to the neighboring gas station anymore! Woo hoo!

I also began the horrific process of removing the 2nd floor carpet. It is disgusting. I mean repulsively, horrifically disgusting! If you don’t believe me check out the pictures in the demo and reconstruction part of the photo page. I can’t wait to get this part over.
