Nothing amazingly fun to look at happened this week. Nothing that HGTV would show in a 30 minute special but we did make a good bit of structural progress. This progress is the slow not showy kind but absolutely necessary unless you enjoy living on the dangerous side and don’t mind falling through your floor when you least expect it.
The corner from Hades is no longer the corner from Hades and the the French door hole is ready for new French doors. We have new support beams on two walls of the living room addition and most importantly we have decided on a design for the built in cat door (extra large size for our extra large Loki) to let them out to the screen porch.

All New Wood! 
The first piece of new subfloor!
Brady removed the rotted ceiling joists on the screened porch so that we can replace those before the new roof goes on, along with several sheets of decking on that part of the house.
We measured for new roofing, in the dark—which I’m sure was quite a sight for our neighbors. We are almost to the point of putting on the new metal roof, Brady has a few more things to finish up before perlings go on and the the beautiful gray roof.
We had a HUGE Home Depot trip where we purchased a lot of the lumber that will go back into the house. In this pictures you see floor joists, support beams, facia boards, roof decking, roof rafters, roof underpayment, and the beginning so of the subfloor reinstall.
