I'm in hot water - Thank goodness!

Today was flooring day.  I'm sure I've mentioned it (like a gazillion times).  By this time we should be getting very good at it, and we are! Flooring a room now takes us hours instead of days.  We still have a lot of opportunity to use these skills again.  In the spring we will be converting the garage into additional living space in the batchelor pad and at some point we will most likely be putting down new floors in the farm house.

Yesterday we put self leveling stuff on the concrete floor and last night we applied sealer. We set the hot water heater in place this morning and got started on the floor at noon.

By 3:30 we were ready to install the last row.  3 1/2 hours!  See?  We're getting good!



By 5:00 we were actually hooking up and filling the hot water heater.  I tell you..  these are the best inventions ever created by man.  Give me hot running water over microwaves, dishwashers, electric blankets and toasters any day.  I'd even take hot running water over sliced bread - which is apparently the pinnacle of greatness (so they say).

After dinner we began laying out the outline for a wall we'll be building tomorrow.  This wall is going to provide a partition creating a hallway and shelving between the two doors on the one side and a closet and a more intimate bedroom space on the other.

We "decided" to call it a day by 8:30...
