1/26/25

  Rick arrived on Thursday, and I arrived on Friday. He removed and framed part of the wall between the kitchen and living room and worked all weekend on wiring the kitchen and laundry room and running a water line to the refrigerator area. We ran 3 new electric lines to the breaker box and ran wire for plugs in the kitchen and west wall of the living room, the dishwasher, garbage disposal, undercabinet lighting on both sides of the kitchen, and 4-way lights in kitchen. We also vacuumed and cleaned out some gross areas in the kitchen walls and baseplates, removed old water and gas pipes, and foamed many holes in the baseplates and other areas. 

We ran out of wire and couldn't complete the kitchen wiring but got close. Next weekend, we'll complete the wiring and start putting up sheetrock in the kitchen, west living room wall, and east utility room wall.

You guys sound super busy! It was an exercise in endurance just reading this out loud to Randy. Good work!
