Maybe It's Baby-Striding

Hick sent more pictures of the week's progress at Cheap House. 


There's the bedroom wall that's along the front door hallway on the other side. It's ready for taping and mudding and painting. I imagine that will be the last step after all the walls are in place. Even though the text Hick sent with the picture was: "bedroom wall finished." We have a different concept of "finished."


Here is more drywall put up in the laundry room. Hick said the washer and dryer will go at the back. I can see he has the wiring done, from that outlet hanging from the ceiling, waiting for a wall. It also looks like he has a hole ready to vent the dryer to the outside. I would imagine that more insulation will be sprayed on that outer wall before covering it with drywall.

Hick is striding along, doing TOO MUCH finish work. Before long, we'll have to take on the major expenses of the HVAC and the kitchen. Hopefully Hick has cabinets, and can find a lower-end new stove and refrigerator. 

I'm betting that Hick will lose interest and go back to working at Lap House before we get to the kitchen and bathroom here.
