Footloose and fancy free; getting there is half the fun, come share it with me

There wasn't much action on the house front the week before last (hence my lack of posting about it), but we're back in business now, with a week's worth of progress to show.

The week of 5/2

exterior walls are insulated

Last week: day 1

we have a front door!

siding begins

days 2 & 3

siding and trim are completed

day 4

drywall and ceilings go in

day 5

the walls and ceilings are taped and mudded

Having walls and ceilings definitely makes it feel a lot more like a real house and gives you a much better idea of the size of the rooms and overall flow. Happily, it feels really good to us and it's made the idea that we might actually live in a house someday seem like an increasingly plausible reality.
