5/11 Sheetrock Day 1

Marcus-the-Mighty and his trusty sidekick, Amos, were already hanging drywall when Daddy and I got there to work on Day 1 of Sheetrock. They really are super heroes to me. You'll see why...

While we made sure the kitchen plumbing was vented correctly (something the plumber didn't show up to clarify, after three days of phone calls), attached some nail boards to the top of the newly rebuilt walls across the back of the house (nothing to nail that edge of the Sheetrock to), and replaced a header that somehow was removed from above an interior doorway, they did this:

Yeah, I know! A BIG difference!

How two men could hang almost all the ceilings in the entire house and start on the walls in less than an 8 hour workday... You see why they are super heroes? This is why you hire a professional for things like this, guys.

Stay tuned for Day 2.
