Over the past 3 days, progress has
been difficult, but slowly and surely, it’s coming along. The girts and some floor joists went up
between bents 1 and 2. At the end of the day, we raised
bent 3, which was far less stressful that then first two! On Tuesday, the guys struggled with the girts
between bents 2 and 3. They needed a lot
of adjustments, shaving off here and there, and each one of the first two girts
had to be taken off and placed back on 4-6 times. So far, that was our most frustrating day as
far as progress goes.
On day
one, I hopped down off of the low side of the foundation, which is not very
high, and hit a dip in the ground. My
ankle snapped…. two torn ligaments. So,
I’ve been in a boot and on crutches (and in pain) ever since. This was NOT in the plans, and it’s
incredibly frustrating for me to be sidelined when there is so much for me to
be doing.
All in all, things are going well… the joint work is just gorgeous, and I’m really started to get a good idea for how this house will feel!
